Thanks Razzak.
It was really one of those silly things where I believed I had covered every
eventuality but I got caught because that was only true after my command
file had run once.
As I was TRACing through immediately after conversion from v7.6 to v9.0 that
was not YET true. As far as I know at the moment that should only happen
after an upgrade. Presumably v9.0 is that much stricter and v7.6 would have
skipped over the error. Whatever, I can correct it easily but it just goes
to show that you shouldn't always believe what you know.
Come to think of it, it does raise another point: I couldn't check from
within TRACE what the setting for MESSAGES (in my case) was without stopping
and checking at the R:> then running trace again until I proved myself
wrong. Would it be useful for TRACE to have a function key that displays the
current settings at that precise point in the program?
Regards,
Alastair.

Alastair,
Take a close look at the initial setting when an UNLOAD/LOAD command
is used to UNLOAD/LOAD database, table structure with or without data.
Opening the file in R:BASE Editor (with Syntax Highlighting) should
provide you with some blue's clues.
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
