RE: Beginner: How can I load/import *.sql-Files?!?
In my experiences, "dbaccess databasename script" does not
stop after the first error.
However, the following environment variable will also cause dbaccess
to stop after the first error: DBACCNOIGN=1
Otherwise, it continues it execute subsequent SQL commands.

Mark, I always thought there was a difference between the two. That
dbaccess databasename script
stops on the first error as the scripts do from within the menus while
dbaccess databasename - <script.sql
continues past errors.
