The harder way is to go to the IIUG website (http://www.iiug.org) and download the sample code which illustrates handling multi-screens very thoroughly. When I last looked, it was 3 smallish (sub 50 KB) shell archive files. I should repackage it as a single gzipped tar file. The hardest way is to go and do it all yourself. Although Wayne's suggestion of using CURRENT WINDOW IS ... is part of the solution, it is by no means complete. -- Yours, Jonathan Leffler (Jonathan.Leffler@Informix.com) #include <disclaimer.h> Guardian of DBD::Informix v1.00.PC1 -- http://www.perl.com/CPAN "I don't suffer from insanity; I enjoy every minute of it!"
We are using Querix, and we get a Windows look and feel to our application, multiple screens are easily created.
