I don't seem to : have the so-called manual, and the closest thing to it, namely, : the Informix Guide to SQL: Reference has nothing about ACE in it, : nor does the Informix Guide to SQL: Tutorial. What's more there is : no mention of this manual in the list of documentation given in the : Informix Unix Products booklet and Installation Guide, Version 5.01. : Does anyone know anything about the missing manual? There are two manual sets. The INFORMIX GUIDE TO SQL manuals (Reference & Tutorial) are for the SQL language, and do not make significant reference to Ace or Perform. The INFORMIX-SQL manuals (Reference & User Guide) deal with the ISQL product, including the menu driver, Ace, and Perform. They are usually shipped as a set with purchase of the product, so I suspect yours is mislaid. the INFORMIX-SQL set is part number 000-7500. the INFORMIX-SQL Reference is part number 000-7042, and the INFORMIX-SQL User Guide is part number 000-7041. ======================================================================= Dennis J.
