I was getting this this exact "missing ')'" problem untill I traced the sqlturbo process on the sparc (running online) and founf that it couldn't access the tbconfig file. Looks as though to run Inet-pc, modes on that file need to be 644. After changing that, Hyperscript tools on the PC could connect fine to Online on the sparc. Now, my next problem. It runs slooooooowwwwww on the pc. When I start hyperscript tools, everything is fine. A single script that basically just does: execute immediate "database sjltest" runs dead fast. Adter playing on the thing for a while, I notice the app starting to run slow and running this test again may takke up to 30 secs. E.g. I tried running the mkdb thing (to install the sunset db)in the examples directory. This was running, but I killed it after about 2 hours. It should have completed before then!!!! Any clues would be appreciated - I'm running hstools/inet-pc on a 386 with 8MB RAM, DOS5.0, windows3.1 Cheers, Steve -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _/_/_/ _/_/_/_/ _/ Stephen J Lacey, IS Engineering Manager _/ _/ _/ Computer Newspaper Services _/_/_/ _/ / The Bishop's Manor, Howden, Humberside _/ _/ _/ Voice: +44 430 43(2480/1100) _/_/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/_/ Fax: +44 430 432450 `Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?' e-mail: sjl@compnews.co.uk -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
