Tom, According to the help USING appears to be a compulsory parameter - which doesn't mean that it is your problem just that it might be that the first table does get created by luck but the second may not be as the insert into that table is where you get a problem. If you're pasting the command then, presumably, the insert is not the problem.
Maybe if you posted the actual code someone will spot your problem...

I projected two temp tables at the R:> with no problem using a single line command with a ; separator. Just another thought: are you using the "USING *" syntax or specifying some columns? Regards, Alastair. ----- Original Message ----- From: TOM HART To: RBASE-L Mailing List Sent: Sunday, February 08, 2009 1:20 AM Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Sconnect revisited The table names are not the problem, I just did that for example. The situation is that if I try to project the 2 temptables(with different names) at the same time the the process fails.

The problem I seem to run into, but is easy to work around is this I am trying to update(or sync) 2 identical databases with data from a table, and this scenario does not work: Connected: DatabaseA, Table: TableA sConnected: DatabaseB, sAttached Table: TableA as alias TableB To update the data I am projecting a temp tableA from TableB where data does not exist, and inserting it into TableA Then projecting a tempB table from TableA and inserting it into TableB if I try to create both temp tables in consecutive order, the process fails - I get error disk problem however if I create tempA, do the process, drop tempA, create tempB and do process everything works drop TempTableA drop TempTableB project temp TempTableA from TableB where...... project temp TempTableB from TableA where...... do my updating this will fail however drop TempTableA project temp TempTableA from TableB where...... do my updating drop TempTableA drop TempTableB project temp TempTableB from TableA where...... do my updating drop TempTableB this will work The work-around is simple but why will the first scenario not work.
