I'm pretty sure I've posted a set of CONNECT routines to c.d.i previously. [...Time passes...] A quick trip to the IIUG I4GL software archives at http://www.iiug.org confirms this; there is a file connect_4gl which I posted in July 1995 which covers CONNECT etc. You don't have to write the code unless you want to. No, I4GL does not support CONNECT et al in any version I'm aware of. You could check the release notes to see if it has been added in your version. You should check the release notes anyway when you get a new version. Yours, Jonathan Leffler (johnl@informix.com) #include <disclaimer.h>
