Of course, it is not certain that >this is the cause of our problems - we have to try it and see. First of all, I seriously doubt this is true. Secondly, even if there was an incompatibility, we already have versions ported on SCO 3.2v4.0 (4.10.UG1 and 5.00.UD3 OnLine). Perhaps, what they meant was there was a bug in an older version (ported on 3.2v2) and the newer release is available only for 3.2v4.0. What version are you running now? >Paul Mahoney, X-Act Solutions Limited -- Alan Denney aland@informix.com {pyramid|uunet}!infmx!aland "Cities are among the most cosmopolitan places on Earth." -- Dianne Feinstein, addressing a conference on the future of cities at SCU
