I have a java program which reads messages off a queue, uses the information in the message to query a database and then write a message to another queue. It works ok but if I have a lot of messages (ie. Over a 1000) it can suddenly start to fail and give a "Socket Connection Attempt Refused"...

I have a table which contains two fields: ProductCode StockQuantity Each day I have messages build up on a queue from an external source which simply contain a product code. I then have send a reply message with the product code and the quantity in stock. Nothing too tricky there. The problem...

Having chaned my domain on my Windows XP Professional machine I have logged in and everything in my inbox has disappeared. I think when I added the mail box to my old domain it downloaded all the messages. How do I access these emails to recover the inbox? I can no longer log on to the old...

Dear All, A website I run makes a socket connection to my server at work and squirts some data down to it. If it can't connect it attempts a connection to a backup server, if that fails it sends me an email to tell me so. This has worked ok for the last few weeks but recently I've been getting...

eric, Thanks for the suggestion. I knew there was a speed difference between databases but wasn't aware the difference was so vast. I guess this is a good demonstration... Cheers.

Update: I have tried writing it to an Access Table and it runs about 10 times faster. I'm therefore guessing that DBASE isn't the best way to go when doing these sorts of operations. Any speed suggestions would still be appreciated.

I have a python script that is inserting about 7000 records (each with 15 fields of 25 chars or less) into a DBF. Each SQL statement is stored as a String in a list. I loop through the list executing each statment as I go. The problem I have is it seems to be running slowly. It takes...

I am trying to export an access table to a dBase 5 table. I get the error message "Field will not fit in Record". Through trial and error I have discovered that i can export successfully if I trim the table down to 40 fields. As soon as I exceed this it stops working... Has anyone else come...
