You might try logging in with a Bourne shell login, and then running your programs. This would be a "lowest-common-denominator" approach. If you get it working in Bourne you'll probably be able to get it working in Csh. This means setting up a .profile. Be sure to include a few of the other environment variables mentioned in the INFORMIX documentation. Example: #!/bin/sh DBPATH=/home/myaccount/senproj ; export DBPATH Just my opinion, I could be wrong. :-) \\\\|// (o o) ==============================---o00--(_)--00o---============================ Tim Schaefer tschaefe@gate.net The Computer Business Company, Inc. http://www.gate.net/~tschaefe Coconut Creek, FL, USA INX_UTIL Tool Kit Shareware:129.91.131.22 Ub...eh...Now, see, who gets to ask the questions here? --Ross Perot =============================================================================
