| osql -wColumn width [-w] value must be greater than 8 and less than 65536.But seems like I remember running into trouble with lines when hey got close to the max.I never could find a way to increase it beyond that."God does not play dice" -- Albert Einstein"Not only does God play dice, but he sometimes throws them where they cannot be seen." -- Stephen Hawking |

| Thanks James, I'll give it a go. I think that isql is deprecated (and dropped from 2k5), but there again osql is itself deprecated in 2k5 ...)Kristen |
