| post the isql statement....the abstract (short) description you have given is quite vague. an example of the problem code....will advance a solution to this a lot faster. |

| Do you need to use the -d <database> switch to select the correct database?I notice that you've only got 'd' in your command, not '-d' |

| Why don't you post the exact isql you are using instead of an example. We can all type examples correctly. Show us exactly what you are using. When you login to Query Anaylyzer, are you using the same user?MeanOldDBAderrickleggett@hotmail.comWhen life gives you a lemon, fire the DBA. |

| And, have you tried to run it in Query Analyzer logging in as the same user. And, yes the other details are relevant because it's obviously failing, which means you've missed one of those other details.MeanOldDBAderrickleggett@hotmail.comWhen life gives you a lemon, fire the DBA. |

| Indeeie - there's no hyphen in front of the U parameter, for example. But I assumed that was a typo in the example too.Anyways, armed with the real database name, user id and password we'll be able to hack in and identify all future problems before-they-happen, and save a whole pile of future-grief, won't we?!!Kristen |
