It's not supposed to be necessary after an [append] because WebCat writes appended data to disk every time without the [closedatabase] tag.If you show me the hierarchy of your WebCat stuff, I'll give you an exact [closedatabase] tag that you can copy from my response and paste into yout template.Sincerely, Ken Grome WebDNA Solutions http://www.hui.net/dna/webdna.html Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
