How 'bout: echo 'create database my-new-db-name' | isql dbschema -q -d my-db-name | sed 's/char(1)/char(2)/g' | isql my-new-db-name and then generate the forms from the new db ? Should give you 260 fields, if that's not enough then go for char(3). > stuart@cix.compulink.co.uk Tel +44 778 426444 > [Stuart Hemming] print "Just another informix-list lurker," Cheers - Tony. _________________________________________________________________________ Tony Heskett th@bnr.co.uk Phone: (+44) 279 402637 BNR, London Road, Harlow, Essex CM17 9NA Fax: (+44) 279 451434
