Re: Dissapearing forms - need help

Yes, good grief. This is a general problem on SCO 5.0.0 that is also present in dbaccess for sql-script files. It was discussed extensively about 6 months ago and should have been resolved by Informix by now. I don't know a bug number or anything for it so I can't rely check that. We live with the problem, but may be someone know if there is a fix available. billy@west.co.za (Billy Wheeler) wrote: :> :> I have a problem in ISQL that I'm hoping someone can help me with.
