Re: Doing a "construct" in SQL rather than 4GL
Posted in 1997
The 4GL construct statement is only meaningfull when there is a forms based user interface. It's therefor meaningless in any language that doesn't have this. When you talk about ISQL it does have perform screens where the query option is essentially the same as 4GL construct.
