Yes, you can use English, but if you are on 7.20+ you have to make sure you get an upgraded codeset (I don't know if the new codeset is shipping with any recent versions of IDS -- I know it isn't in 7.20-7.23). I don't remember if this is available from the Informix website; you can get it through your tech support office, though. June -- june_t@hotmail.com Grounded in Palo Alto, living on Oreo's
