ahh... did not know the color was an output.. live and learn.

I see what you mean on the if @error.. will change.

Not working I mean that when I run the script with 4.0.2 the exec sql runs and returns no error... in 4.1 it returns with error.. so I agree there is something in there but I dont know what it could be... or why it would work in 4.0.2 but not 4.1.

Thanks again for your help.
