I found out that this info has already been released in technotes but for those of us who are not yet developers no info has been passed along. I will pass along more info as soon as I get the technotes and anyone interested is welcome to send me a note. We got our databased unscrogged this morning using the repair tools only to find it damaged again from using 'delete selection' in multiuser mode. steve neruda (neruda@cis.ohio-state.edu)
