The following command (all on one line) works in W2000 and WNT but
not in W98.
gfix -z -validate -full -no_update
-USER "sysdba" -PASSWORD "xx"
"D:\corrupt.gdb" 2>"D:\stderr.txt"

Does anyone know how to make it work in W98?

I have not found a way to redirect stderr to a file in W98. W98/gfix
sees the 2> and thinks I am specifying a second database. Gfix
returns a 'zero' errorcode when it finds corruption in a db so I must
inspect stderr to see if there are problems.

I want to validate a gdb from a Delphi program. I am using IB 5.5 so
I don't have access to the IB utilities and Delphi clasess that could
be used in later versions of IB.

How can I validate a gdb on Windows 98 using Delphi and gfix?
