Hi Everyone, We're running Informix 4GL 6.03.uc1 on Digital UNIX 3.2C and have the following problem: If someone presses keys quickly in a 4GL program, typing ahead more quickly than Informix can open windows or launch programs (as some programs launch other programs), the screen will not get updated correctly. Pressing CTRL-R to refesh the screen shows Informix did actually keep up. Does anyone have any ideas why this might be happening? Thanks, Paul -- // Paul E.
