Re: Loading database from script files

John, You almost had right the first time out of the box. Just one little change. You don't need the redirection symbol. isql (or dbaccess) databasename sqlscript.sql Actually, you don't even need the .sql extension. As far as ending the script. Nothing special is needed. Although, for consistency's sake, I always use the ';' ending. George Teachman USDA-SCS Fort Collins, CO
