Paul, I don't know if it's worth your time to write such a book, but if you intend to make big bucks from your efforts, forget it. A book for such a narrow audience as Informix programming will not make you rich. The publisher will get most of the money (if any). I thought you'd be interested in writing it *just* to help us "little programmers" keep our bosses and users happy! :-) =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= John Baker USAISC - Lex Phone: (606) 293-3644 or 293-3743 Lexington - Blue Grass Army Depot DSN: 745-3644 or 745-3743 Lexington, KY 40511-5109 E-mail: jbaker@lexington-emh2.army.mil =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
