THe best way I've found to deal with display issues of SELECTed dbaccess
data is to UNLOAD what I want to a system file (e.g., /tmp/data.dat) and
then write an awk script to format the output. Not that awk is too easy,
but it's a lot more powerful and flexible than the Informix ACE report
writer. Check out comp.lang.awk for more info.
