I have been learning a lot recently about using Drupal and would be happy to set something up and let you login and maybe do a Skype whatever. Or even meet face to face as well. There is a superb Drupal book written by David Mercer. I have a copy but I use it extensively. The hardest part of Drupal is for the admin not the user. Set up roles and you will be flying. Huge amount of modules and as I say I am more than happy to help. -- Rich http://www.cregy.co.uk Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him.
