dbload help needed

A couple of questions about some dbload problems we've encountered: I. I am trying to put together a shell script that does something like: if dbload -d xx -c yy -l zz then ........ However, dbload returns any number of (positive) values, which seem to vary (somewhat) with the number of rows loaded. The best I can get for consistency is that a retcode of 1003 means that it core dumped. Anybody have any explanation for the retcodes? or is there none? II. Core dumping leads to the second question: TFM says that the command line option -n x will cause it to commit or, if you're not using transaction logging, to write a message to the terminal every x lines. For us, it core dumps. Discovered that -n 0 seems to disable the feature. Bug? Known problem?
