The SQL backend in 1.6.8 is spotty at best. I know the problem you are referring to, and it is not likely to be fixed (because there is not likely to be another 1.6.x release). The CVS SQL backend has been redesigned from 1.6.8, and I am in the process of redesigning the CVS SQL backend. ;) However, the CVS SQL backend is functional (albeit a bit slow, depending on your setup--my DB is on a different machine, so the network may be a bottleneck...). I think we've ironned out the major bugs. This is the backend that will be released with 1.8.0, coming sometime in December. There's actually a time-line message on this list, if you look through the archives. It was posted on Wednesday. -- Matthew Vanecek perl -e 'print $i=pack(c5,(41*2),sqrt(7056),(unpack(c,H)-2),oct(115),10);' ******************************************************************************** For 93 million miles, there is nothing between the sun and my shadow except me.
