And I'm glad because my early experiences with unload weren't good ones, with tables being created out of order (FK tables before the PK tables), views out of order, etc... Don't know if it's a cleaner experience now, I'm sure it is. My last unload was probably a few years ago.
It's funny you mentioned this! If you use "UNLOAD ALL" and then RUN the file to re-build the database, you will NOT see such issue. R:BASE engine takes care of the table sequence and dependency. If you UNLOAD STRUCTURE as a separate file, and then UNLOAD DATA as a separate file, and then RUN the file with STRUCTURE, and then RUN the file with DATA, you might see such behavior. This is a legacy boo boo we all have lived with. However, this MAJOR engine-level fix has been implemented in the latest available versions of R:BASE eXtreme 9.1 (32/64), to be officially released on February 14, 2011. This is a result of a major 9.1 (64) conversion project that I have been involved with. http://www.rbase.com/rbg91/ Very Best R:egards, Razzak.
