Does anybody have any technical information regarding the internal format of Informix .FRM files. The reason I'm asking is because of a problem I've discovered with .PER files which does'nt allow fields of variable length, ie. The length of the field is'nt known until run time and the only way we've found of getting around the problem is by keeping loads of .PER files which are all the same apart from the length of the field. If you can think of another way around this problem (maybe an easier way), I would be very grateful. -- These opinions are mine -- let's face it who'd want them Send me mail -- No reasons, just send it. stuart@cix.compulink.co.uk Tel +44 778 426444 [Stuart Hemming] Stuart |8-)
