Razzak,

Thanks for the quick response. As a follow-up question, I have noticed that
when I try to delete these files, some cannot be deleted as a "session" is
in progress. And I can't move, delete, or copy over the DB files. I have to
wait until I can delete the temp files before I can do perform the above.

In a production environment, this won't be a good practice anyway. But is
there a way to "close" the database which would not allow any new
connections and/or close existing connections.

I would like to be able to maintain the DB. IE: Pack (Pack involving connect
to the DB in a single user mode), backup (close the application during the
morning hours), etc.

Thanks

Steve

Steve,

Update the correspondent RBASE.CFG and OTERRO.CFG
files to include the following:

Steps:

01. Locate the RBASE.CFG and OTERRO.CFG files on
     Win2K Server

02. Using the text editor, such as NOTEPAD, edit
     both files and search for SCRATCH ON

     (approximately on line 25 in RBASE.CFG and
      line 16 in OTERRO.CFG)

     Insert the line right after SCRATCH ON and
     type the following:

     SCRATCH C:\Temp

     or use appropriate directory on Win2K Server
     with full read/write/delete privileges

     So, the RBASE.CFG and OTERRO.CFG files should
     look like the following:

     SCRATCH ON
     SCRATCH C:\TEMP

03. Save the file

04. STOP R:Tango Service

     Clean (Delete) all *.$$$ files

05. START R:Tango Service

That's all there is to it!

Enjoy and make sure to have fun.

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak.
