HI All,

Can database insert through scripting for Store and Forward. Is this function available and how to enable it. There are occasions when DB is down for few minutes and I have few scripts to add manually downtime on the line. So I would like to be able to add this in to Store and Forward if DB is not available.

Thanks in advance  
Pawel

E.g. Instead of using: system.db.runUpdateQuery

Use: system.db.runSFUpdateQuery
