Check the accompanying ISAM error code for more information. The table file or the index file may have been corrupted. Unless the ISAM error code or an operating system message points to another cause, run the bcheck utility to verify file integrity. You should be familiar with the finderr utility, or the error messages manual. Let us know what these suggestions reveal, and we'll look again. __________________________________________________________________ | Clem Akins Standard Disclaimers Apply | |Reynolds Metals Co, Alloys Plant "Climb High, Cave Deep!" | | Muscle Shoals, Alabama USA cwakins@leia.alloys.rmc.com | |________________________________________________________________|
