Without having the code at hand, it will be difficult to work out what's up. One of the nastier problems would be if your function is called to do something important because the regular Informix function has the same name. However, it is unlikely to be that, but it has been a problem, on occasion, in the past. -- Jonathan Leffler (jleffler@informix.com, jleffler@earthlink.net) Guardian of DBD::Informix v1.00.PC1 -- see http://www.perl.com/CPAN #include <disclaimer.h>
