There is no way for either the dbimport or dbexport utilities to comunicate with the tape drive. This was logged as case number 413099 (sorry, but I do not remember the bug number which was assigned). The fix first appeared in OnLine Workgroup Server 7.12.TC5 and OnLine Dynamic Server 7.20 for Windows NT. Note: The value for the tape drive (TAPEDEV or LTAPEDEV) in the onconfig file should be \\\\.\\TAPE0 rather than just Tape0. -- Regards, Walter S.
