Now, my question is this, when making a database, it goes from creating it into fields....how do I add those frields and what do I type in the creation of the database?

Then next question is what do I use to capture the output from the mud regarding the item and add them into the database?

Thanx for any help... Very Happy

Well your in luck, it just so happens Charabel has went through a lot of trouble to make this very thing into a finished mud script and can be found at this link:

You may have to do some Trigger fixing to macth your own mud but as you look it over you will see how it is done and should be able to conform it to your needs.

For making the data base you will probably have to read the help files and just play around with it, It is a process that I just don't have time to get into right now,sorry Sad

As far as how to capture the output from the mud, that's usually the #TRIGGER that does that.

look at the link and you will see how it is put together if your still got questions, we'll still be here.
