At the end of the day, I use a batch file to import files from my other locations and this location.  It has worked fine, until recently.

If there is a text file for the database, Sesame will import the file and delete it.

Below is a part of the batch file.

c:
cd\sesame2
cd program

sesame.exe -client SesameServer DATA\SR\SOLDSR.DB

sesame.exe -client SesameServer DATA\NG\SOLDNG.DB

sesame.exe -client SesameServer DATA\ANT\SOLDANT.DB

sesame.exe -client SesameServer DATA\SM\SOLDSM.DB

The problem I have now is when I start the SOLDSR database, I get the error shown in the attachment.  When I open the database manually, it works fine.  I tested the programming for errors and none came up.

Hi Ray,

Would that apply to all lines that had "cd program" them?

This  is the complete batch file below.

c:
cd\Sesame2
cd Program
sesame.exe -command SesameServer  hello UNLOAD "ACCOUNTS NG"
sesame.exe -command SesameServer  hello UNLOAD "ACCOUNTS SM"
sesame.exe -command SesameServer  hello UNLOAD "ACCOUNTS ANT"
sesame.exe -command SesameServer  hello UNLOAD "ACCOUNTS SR"
sesame.exe -command SesameServer  hello UNLOAD "ACCOUNTS SR"

Thanks Ray,

I'll see how it goes today.

SesameServer is the name of the machine where the .DB files are?
