Add BIGINT, BIGSERIAL support (per bug report from Art Kagel). Clean up some minor issues in the comments. Updated by: Jonathan Leffler 2008-07-28 http://www.iiug.org/software/index_all.html#informixtypes New release of sqlcmd SQLCMD version 86.00 will LOAD tables specified with database@server:owner.table and subsets of that, under delimited identifiers mode (DELIMIDENT set in the ESQL/C environment - so other client APIs may have more stringent requirements on the setting of DELIMIDENT). You can also create basic HTML tables by setting 'format HTML'.
