Hi there, BE CAREFUL if you are using (or planning to upgrade) version 7.22.FC2 and 7.23.FC1 to DEC !!!! The DSA is corrupting the decimal data type(10 and over)...It has something to do with the 64 bits porting. If you have to use these versions (e.g.Enterprise Replication) the work-around is convert these columns to float. Hope it helps somebody (I've already had enough headache for all Informix's DBAs on DEC) Ivan (ivanjr@pobox.com)
