Creation password at runtime

[George Simon]

I just tried it in both SCO Unix and Windows and all it took was 1 [entr].
Why would it take 2 [entr] in your system?

George,
That was simply briliant... good for you...  but, when I tried it... for
some reason it took 2 [ENTR]'s to work ????

You know, I hate to say it... but I was able to duplicate your problem with
a 10 second prc table and a pair of files.   W run many programs with
creation passwords... is it possible we never have used a hidden (variable)
in all this stuff. I wouldn't believe it... BUT, you're right, my old trick
of doing a regular (no-variable filename) to the same file somewhere on the
table did not help.  Good luck.
