Re: Suppressing output from ISQL statements and LOAD in ESQL

} } I'm using ISQL vers 6.0 running under SCO UNIX 3.4. I have a UNIX script that } calls an ISQL script that contains the statement } LOAD FROM filename INSERT INTO tablename } I get the output "x rows loaded" which I want to suppress. } } So... I tried the -s option, and I still get the screen output. } Then I tried redirecting the output from the UNIX script. Nogo. } } So I though I'd give up on this and write a short ESQL program to do the } load. Unfortunately, "$load from filename insert into tablename } works as expected in an ISQL script but brings up a systax error in ESQL } As all I need to do is suppress output, can someone advise? } } Thanks in advance, } } Kate } Hi Kate , The following thing works for me ... isql -qr tst.sql 2>X Or Prepare the load statement in ESQL and execute it .... I hope it helps ... Bye. Peter. mpeter.muc@sni.de
