Dan, the reload command does not quite the same detail of rewriting as unload/run. Unload creates a set of R> prompt commands to completely recreate the database and insert the data. In some "interesting" situations, this will clear up a problem that survives the reload process.

I am wondering if I could just do this instead of the unload and load process for the update. 1. Apply the update 2. Open R:base V-8 3. Type at the R> SET multi off
CONNECT DBName
RELOAD NewDBName
4. Rename the database accordingly. Would this work as well?? I think reload does like an unload and load. Dan Goldberg
