Informix reserved words are such fun. In Ver 2.10, I had a lot of columns called text. Informix made this a reserved word in V4.0. Everything broke in a most horrible fashion; I still haven't forgotten it. The moral is, don't use any words that Informix, in a future release, may choose to make reserved. I leave the achievement of this as an exercise to the readers :) Peter
