Yes. } Do Version 6.0x compilers produce executables } that will not use DBCENTURY correctly ? Yes. The code base for 6.0x I4GL precedes the introduction of DBCENTURY into the Informix code stream by several years. The version 6.10 products will be the first to have DBCENTURY retrofitted into them. The companion release, 4.20, will also have DBCENTURY support; so will the 5.10 servers. This has been discussed in this forum a number of times this year.
