Re: Another ontape question

First you have to put the informix environment variables in your script. e.g INFORMIXDIR and so on. For the ENTER, you may do the following: ontape (your parameters e.g -L 0) << EOF #empty line EOF This will treat whatever between the two labels EOFs as if you are typing it on the command line.
