We have PDQPRIORITY in the onconfig file set to 5 and MAXPDQ set to 100 and haven't run into many problems with it. Occasionally a query will set it to 20 without any problems. We've also set it to 80 or 90 when we build indexes or rebuild some of our data warehouse tables and haven't had any problems. -- Stefanie Vario svario@zenacomp.com ZenaComp Incorporated http://www.zenacomp.com/~zenacomp
