Janet,
Hope you don't mind me posting the answer to your problem with aceperl so that
others can benefit from it:
>> Could you describe what operations your perl scripts do and in particular how
>> they exit (they may inadvertantly be doing a 'save').
>> you are right - the script was inadvertantly saving when it exit. your
> question prompted me to delve deeper into the aceperl donumentation, and
> I added a line to my perl script:
>> $db->auto_save(0);
>>which seems to have solved the problem. thanks for the suggestion!
OK, so that's probably worth noting, Lincoln (Stein) may may like to comment on
this.
cheers Ed
