Cheng >wcheng@hk.super.net >----------------------------------------------------------------------- If you use TCP/IP for your connection to the corporate database, then your problem is in the 'services'-file. This file contains the info which links the 'SERVICE'-Entry in the 'SETNET' with the correct port on the database-server side. I assume that there is a wrong number acting as the port number. The simplest is that you compare the 'services'-files from a working and a not-working workstation to see the difference. Set the port numbers to be equal to finaly solve your problem.
