quick questions for all that know

if you have a dagger that has +2 attack bonus and 1d4 fire does it cut through damage resistance like a +2 dagger with a +2 enchantment bonus..

also does the bard songs bonuses to hit cut through DR as well?

thanks

+2 AB does bypass DR

Bard Song does not.

and would +2 AB stack with say greater magic weapon (the spell) so in thoery you could have +7 to hit?

Nope. The only way to get that amount of AB/enhancement on a weapon is via the wonders of militant bonuses.

so Attack Bonus on a weapon does NOT stack with greater magic weapon (the spell) ?

for instance if you get a +3 temporary enchantment bonus from the spell on this dagger it would act as a +3 dagger to hit
or if you get a +1 temporary enchantment bonus from the spell on this dagger it would act as a +2 dagger to hit (since the AB was already +2)

correct?

Correct.

thanks for the help

I heard that it was an engine limitation and that AB will, in fact, bypass DR.

AB Bonus - Bypasses DR, Bonus to hit.
Enhancement Bonus - Bypasses DR, bonii to hit and damage.
Damage Bonus - Does not bypass DR, bonus to damage.

That is all.

A yew longbow +2 AB works on vampires and other undead.

thanks again peeps!

Yep, makes the crafted weapons much better. I used a burning longsword in preference to a real magic weapons for ages, till I got really nice sword as DM drop.
