I wish I had time to help... but I'd suggest that a quick look into rpm should reveal one of at least two possibilities: 1 - rpm is well structured -- separation possible (maybe easy) 2 - rpm is spaghetti code -- lost cause If 1, it might be as simple as close/open db as you want... why re-invent the wheel if adding a bearing will eliminate the friction... Good luck.
