Re: IBM net.data error 3021

[Gary Kaplan <gkaplan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you turn on logging for your macro the Net.Data log will show you 
          exactly where your error is happening.  The Net.Data logging 
is setup in the INI file that your website is using.  The 2 directives 
are DTW_TRACE_LOG_DIR (location of log file) and 
DTW_TRACE_LOG_LEVEL(OFF,application, OR service).  Service traces 
everything and "can" make finding what you are looking for difficult. 
Application is usually good enough to find any errors.


The following link should take you to a IBM page for Net.Data.  There 
are links for the different manuals.
