Look at the documentation. > Yeah. Just did :) The one thing I seem to recall (I'll check later today and tomorrow) is that dba_open did not support the 'c' open (r/w but no truncate if the file exists) and ./configure didn't correctly determine when using db1.x and not db2.x. Also, when using ndbm as implemented by db, that was broken too. Haven't tried for several weeks so that may be fixed. -- =========================================================================== Jim Jagielski ||| jim@jaguNET.com ||| http://www.jaguNET.com/ "That's no ordinary rabbit... that's the most foul, cruel and bad-tempered rodent you ever laid eyes on"
