IDTRANS is a column that holds the text values, "Invoice" or "Payment" etc.. This program has worked every day for a long time, till today, and this is what I have it traced to. It can't process the data, because it doesn't find any. Can you think of any reason the ORDER BY IDTRANS ASC would be a problem today? One last piece of data for you. Today and once each month for sure, IDTRANS holds only "Invoice" but should that matter? We run this batch program every day to close out our daily financials. Today it failed. Dan
