    Hi,

    So I've been trying to figure this concept out for months now... and hoping its possible. I want to read and use some information from a database at my site fmsfreebies.com and use it at another site... not like, member information... I just need to use the user ID's. For example, if someone is logged in at one of my sites, and their user ID is diy-123, I want to use that "diy-123" in another page off my site.

    If someone wants to PM me I can expand on what im talking about because it might seem confusing.

    Thanks in advance,
    Garrett

    In theory, you can connect to any database as long as you have the server details, username and password of the database server.

    What language and DB are you using?
