Hello everyone

I´m trying to edit my crontab, with the -e option and the only thing that appears its a number for example

crontab -e enter
75

I need to use crontol +d and appears the message that nothing changes in the crontab.

If I use crontab -l appears my list of crons.

Can you help me what´s going on

I use solaris 7

Thanks in advance

The edit used to edit your crontab is controleld by the EDITOR environment variable.

if using sh/ksh/bash try:

EDITOR=vi
export EDITOR
crontab -e

if using csh/tcsh

setenv EDITOR vi
crontab -e

set the enviroment variable EDITOR to your favorite editor.
for 'vi' in ksh-like shell do:
export EDITOR=/bin/vi
