Since nobody else has answered ... First, sometimes it takes a while. How long did you wait for the job to cancel? Second, sometimes I've had to use "delete" to remove a job after it was cancelled. I wouldn't have thought this would be necessary, but sometimes it's the only way I can figure out to clear the job out. If all else fails, I shut down the director and run dbcheck in fix mode. It seems to find "orphaned job records" and once it cleans those up I restart the director and all is well. -- Bill Moran Collaborative Fusion Inc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
