Thanks for the reply,
I realize that user variables disappear when the connection closes but I don't
understand why what I'm trying to accomplish can't be done. Doesn't it make
since that if you can load a single file with multiple SQL commands and have
that work succesfully then you should be able to have a single call with
multple SQL commands work just as succesfully? Is there any way to do what I
asked in my original post?
Thanks again for the reply.
