Re: need help using dbexport

I tried using >it by entering dbexport dbname, I get an error message stating that >"Cannot create message file". Any ideas on how to proceed from here. It means you don't have write permission in the directory where you tried to do the dbexport. Try saying chmod 777 . before doing the DBEXPORT. If that returns an error message, you need to get hold of a UNIX sysadmin. :) HTH. -- "I'll Be Back" Obnoxio ************************************************ Sane?
