Karen,
I stepped away for a few hours. I was afraid that might be the problem. My scratch settings have not given me a problem for some time but the last few weeks I have been getting the I/O error messages as well. My settings now are: C:\Documents and Settings\jim\Local Settings\Temp I do not know why that should be a problem since I have 10 G memory on my C drive. My database is less than 1 G.

Either a user has lost his "write" ability to that location, or there isn't enough space or something prevented RBase from writing to that scratch location. What are you scratch settings?

I will start with the one I do not remember seeing before. INTERNAL ERROR SORT PROCESSING (2290) This is happening when I am updating all my part costs. When tracing the file, it is happening when appending a temp view (about 3400 rows) to a temp table. I have never had this problem before with this code. I run this only periodically so it has been some time since I ran it last. I can look in the view and the temp table is empty when this portion of the code runs. The only thing different is we have more parts. We are using 7.6. James Belisle
