DTR> show dictionary
The default directory is CDD$DEFAULT
= CDD$TOP.TEROMAN.DTR

At the default there are some domains defined. I can use them.

When I modify or create a new record or domain, it says that
Element "CDD$TOP.TEROMAN.DTR" not found in dictionary.

Please tell me what should I do to be able to create new records and domains.

Thanks for your time and help.

Is this a CDD based or external file based dictionary?

WAG:

I suspect a problem with logical names.
Do a manual drill down of show logical for CDD$DEFAULT, CDD$TOP and any lower level logical name candidates in those paths.
Search lists in there? Rooted logicals?
Try again with a single transalation level logical name?

Hein.

Din't use Datatrieve since 1989 but could it be a cdd corruption or ptotection problem ? Did you post the complete error message ?
