db_compress()

Hi all,

Does anyone know if there are any known issues with db_compress() in 
EDS?  The only way I can get it to work is *if* I am compressing a 
database that is in the same folder, *and* I open the database with only 
the file name instead of using the whole path, *and* I delete the .tmp 
file (created when database is compressed) beforehand.  If I skip one of 
these steps, the program crashes when I try to compress.  If I open the 
database with DB_LOCK_EXCLUSIVE, I get a message saying that the problem 
occurred in ulock_file(), type check failure, fn is -1.  If I open with 
DB_LOCK_NO, I get a message saying that the problem occurred in 
db_close(), bad file number (-1).  Is this a bug, or am I missing 
something?

Thanks,

Virtual B
