Hi, I'm trying to save some data using dbm, dbm_open creates the file but the returned file handle is null. The same code works in Unix/Linux. Here's the code: dbm_local = dbm_open (database, O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 00664); if(dbm_local) { strcpy(buffer, "CurrentOrderNumber"); key.dptr = buffer; key.dsize = strlen(buffer)+1; return_data = dbm_fetch(dbm_local, key); if(return_data.dptr) sprintf(count, "%d", atoi(return_data.dptr)+1); else strcpy(count, "1"); data_data.dptr = count; data_data.dsize = strlen(count)+1; dbm_store(dbm_local, key, data_data, DBM_REPLACE); dbm_close (dbm_local); } Thanks -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
