RE: mkdbfile: create file in another account

Hi Kate,   These commands are designed to be run from the unix or (blerk, I hate this word) dos environment. Running them from TCL would require an sh -c type command.   Regards David Logan Database Administrator HP Managed Services 139 Frome Street, Adelaide 5000 Australia +61 8 8408 4273 +61 417 268 665 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kate Stanton Sent: Wednesday, 28 January 2004 7:47 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: mkdbfile: create file in another account Does anyone know anything about using mkdbfile (from UV bin) to create a file in an account other than the current user account?   A colleague told me about it, but it does not seem to be documented, and does not seem to work on my UV 10.0.17 system on Windows 2000, as it does on his UV 9.5.2.1 on Windows something.   I tried, according to his instructions: VOC mkdbfile 0001: V 0002: mkdbfile 0003: E 0004: FG 0005: 0006: PICK.FORMAT   Then, from TCL: mkdbfile C:\BeaconUV\DevelData\XXINV\KKINV 30 1 4 20 50 80 1068 where: C:\BeaconUV\DevelData\XXINV\KKINV is pathname of file to create 30 is file type 1 is modulo 4 is separation 20 is hash type 50 is max load 80 is split load 1096 is large record size   This gave error message: invalid filetype specified   I feel very nervous about using something that is not documented, so presumably may not be reliably supported.   Anyone know anything, please?   Cheers,  Kate   Kate Stanton Walstan Systems Ltd 4 Kelmarna Ave, Herne Bay, Auckland, New Zealand ph +64 9 360 5310  fax +64 9 376 0750 ah +64 9 378 9594 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
