dbdiff2 and DBPATH problems

I keep hearing about DBPATH problems. I also note that several systems seem to not have the ability to switch databases on the fly - as dbdiff2 used to require. For those of you with this problem - you can thank Walt for coming up with the suggestion - dbdiff2 supports a two-step operation using the -s1 and -s2 switches. DBPATH=xyzexport DBPATH dbdiff2 -nd xxx -od yyy -s1 DBPATH=zxyexport DBPATH dbdiff2 -nd xxx -od yyy -s2 This will unload all of the required data in step 1 (s1) and then pick up where it left off in step 2 (s2) against the second database. cheers j. _____________________________________________________________________________ Jack Parker | Litigation is the basic legal right Hewlett Packard, BSMC Boise, Idaho, USA| which guarantees every corporation jparker@hpbs3645.boi.hp.com | its decade in court.
