If you want to append a new record to the end of a database, use Append instead. WebCatalog may be confused by the mixed treatment of the stat.db file. If you want to be using this stat file as a database, try:[append ../statistics/stat.db]cart=[CART]&date=[DATE]&time=[TIME]&storename=[STOREN AME]&total=[TOTAL]&username=[USERNAME][/append] [closedatabase stat.db]This assumes that you have a stat.hdr file in the statistics folder that would contain:cart
