Hello, We are planing an upgrade from 4GL 6.5 to 7.2. We have found in release notes at least two possibly troubling known problems 79990 and 85612. Have anybody experienced problems with SLEEP (79990) and ARR_CURR() (85612) after converting from 4GL 6.xx to 7.2. Any suggestions and workarounds. Anyway I will be happy with any suggestion to minimize our update nightmare. Thanks. Dragan.Kovac@Kramers.nl

Hi! None of these. Found one: control charaters (entered with vi) are not allowed in PRINT command, but you can use variable. I ported about 600 programs over (CDI accounting etc.). HTH Michael "D.
