Your right, AR is a part of the DB library. My bad. I'm really new to CI and fairly new to OOP so please bear with me.
What I have done is stripped out the database directory from the CI build and put that in the root directory of my server.
I edited the DB.php file and put my dsn info into the DB function ($params=''). I defined my BASEPATH and EXT in the DB.php file as well.
I created a test.php file in the same directory and included the DB.php file. How do I run a query from there? Am I missing something else?
Also, thank you for your fast reply!
