Error handling a max license issue

Hello everyone, I am having the difficult time trying to figure out how to detract an max user license when my script tries to connect to our Pervasive database through an ODBC connector. I am looking for a way to ignore the error if one arise and continue on with the code. Here is what I have so far if($conn = odbc_connect($aei_db, $user, $pass)) { $sql_open_jobs = "select distinct jh.part, jh.date_due, jd.job, jd.seq, jd.employee, jd.description, jd.Date_Sequence from v_job_header jh, v_job_detail jd where jd.job = jh.job and jh.date_closed='1900-01-01' and jd.job not like '%IND%' and jd.suffix = jh.suffix"; $rs_open_jobs = odbc_exec($conn, $sql_open_jobs); echo $refresh_message; } else { if(!($conn = odbc_connect($aei_db, $user, $pass))) { $refresh_message = "This page has not been refreshed since: " . date("h:i"); echo $refresh_message; $have_license = false; } } Thanks in advance Richard Sharp Database Administrator PH: 316-942-8604 ext 108 Tenderness is what love looks like in private, Justice is what love looks like in public - Cornel West I am what I am because of who we all are - Ubuntu
