It is not possible to get the database as client is not ready for that (Can't help it - you know).

Is there any command to flush back the whole array in to file (each array element will become one line) or do I need to write one by one line ? manisha At 04:59 AM 5/23/02 +0300, you wrote: >Get a database working!
