Greetings! We have a problem with our 4GL programs involving setting fields to display in "reverse video" when the cursor enters that field and then having the field go back to normal attribute. We traced it using the debugger. Our code resembles: CASE DISPLAY BY NAME field_name ATTRIBUTE(reverse) WHEN FIELDNAME = "field_name" END CASE The field goes to reverse video. However, once the code hits the line: INPUT ARRAY yada-yada-yada and then we "step" over it, the field goes back to normal video. This just started happening with our upgraded versions of Informix. Our versions: UNIX NCR 3.00.02 Engine 7.21.UD1 4GL 6.04.UC1 Is there any way to turn off the "default" video attributes of the INPUT ARRAY statement, or are we going to have to wait for a patch from Informix? Thanks for the assist! Kerry Davids Kerry Davids Client: 414-751-1835 E-mail: dino@ix.netcom.com Sr. Consultant Pager: 888-360-5739 Pager E-mail: 0880955@pagenet.net
