It would be good if the KB article included a better example to get it working and listed what's needed - database window open, what parameter the command took.
What databases this works with - .db/.mdb/etc.
For instance - does the database name that you can pass include the full path or the relative path

The databases in zMUD currently use a proprietary data format. So you can only load databases that you have already created using the database module. Click the Database button to open the module and then you will see a button to create a new database. It doesn't work with any other formats such as .db or .mdb.

The database name is just the filename with no path. Databases are stored in the /DB subdirectory of your character directory.
