I'd like to come back to this problem from November
last year.
I've spent the last two days playing around to see
if I could resolve it and I have!
Actually, I resolved it a while ago by creating a
playback file with a [Return] in it - but that was not the correct way to do it
<g>.
The real solution was that the database was
connected as read only and as soon as I removed that restriction the problem
disappeared.
The question now is why "CONNECT db READ" should
cause the BACKUP command to fail?
Anybody got any ideas, please?? I'm trying to write
all my code now so that the database is open in read/write mode only when it is
needed to be so.
I'm using RBW 6.5++ build:
1.851xRT03.
Thanks in advance,
Regards, Alastair.
