<font size=2 face="sans-serif">I may not understand this totally, but
if the individual databases can be identified on open/attach, you may be
able to use environment variables in the OPEN in PDL. If the instances
are accessed by different users, perhaps an OWNER technique would work.</font>

<br><font size=3>If you had multiple instances or the same database.. and
you wanted to control that access externally (because you only want to
have one copy of the program) </font>
<br><font size=3>How can you do it... (on the HP sonce the PDL controlled
the open a file equation it was easy) But on ODBC i'm trying to wrap
my head around how to make it work..<br>
<br>
</font>
<br><font size=3>Our platform is windows and the target database is DB2
on iSeries via ODBC..<br>
<br>
</font>
<br><font size=3>It doesn't appear I can insert a system variable in the
ACCESS statement</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3>It appears I can do this in the PDL.. so I may have some
rethink of the DB architecture unless someone else has some ideas..<br>
</font>
<br><font size=3>PS i'm just a bit fuzzy... taking a week to move and driving
2700 km can do that too you.. </font>
