RE: SCR_CURR() OR SCR_LINE()

Copied from page 188 of 4GL By Example, Answer On-Line. You can see that number 7 refers to SCR_CURR(). As far as I'm aware it should be SCR_LINE() unless anyone can tell me different. ;-) 6. Execute the INPUT ARRAY WITHOUT DEFAULTS statement to activate the array form for editing the rows in the program array. 7. Call the built-in ARR_CURR(), SCR_CURR(), and ARR_COUNT() functions in a BEFORE ROW clause to identify the current cursor position in the screen and program arrays. 8. Use the other clauses of INPUT ARRAY to perform data validation. -----Original Message----- From: Mark D.

If you have found a mistake in an Informix manual then please report it to doc@informix.com. Cheers, -- Mark. +----------------------------------------------------------+-----------+ | Mark D.
