How can something be denied in Win98 since it doesn't handle permissions, users and stuff? Don't confuse unix with windows. error 2 == ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND Likely, mysqldump is not in the system path.

thanks... where did you get this info (error 2 == ...) ?? right... it isn't in the path... but I used chdir() to get to where mysqldump is, and $backup_file has a full path in it... _____________________________ .
