You can't go by our definitions of any errors under 100. These come from the OS, and vary by OS. We take our list from SunOS; error 46 is "Protocol not supported" on SunOS, but not on SCO. Check your /usr/include/sys/errno.h for OS error messages. On SCO, 46 is "No record locks available" -- it appears that you have run out of locks on your system. Check your kernel parameters, something like NLOCKS. June ---- June Tong Informix Software ---- ---- Senior Consultant (415) 926-6140 ---- ---- International Support junet@informix.com ----
