Steve You must stop the R:Tango Service and don't start it again until you are finished.

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 -----Original Message----- From: A.

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.
