Is that true? >Olaf Hendel >PS: We are using INFORMIX 4GL 4.00.UC1 Sorry, HELP was added to CONSTRUCT on 4GL/4.1, along with a lot of other nifty enhancements (like being able to put default values into fields, BEFORE/AFTER FIELD control blocks, etc), but prior to that CONSTRUCT was pretty brain-dead to anything but the basics. I never did figure out a good way to add help to CONSTRUCT prior to 4.1, so the best answer may be to upgrade. ================ Dennis J. Pimple Informix CSE / Denver
