I'm using 8.5... but what I'm thinking is that I'll just add a field  
to the layout that has the URL to the HTML file... shouldn't add any  
overhead, I woudln't think, since all I'm returning from FileMaker is  
the URL.

I may still return some of the HTML from the database; these reports  
are made up of about 20 chunks of HTML, and when I return the chunks  
the speed is just fine. The problem arises when I have to return all  
20 "chunks" in one long report; I may just output the long report to  
static HTML and leave the little chunks embedded in the database...

At any rate, it's great to see a solution. I'd completely overlooked  
the possibility of using a hybrid of static HTML and database... I  
use it all the time for photos and such, but hadn't thought about it  
in this context...

Best,
