Are you are talking about functions like those in Oracle? If so, they translate to Stored Procedures in Informix. Read up for further info.

If you got any other version, you'll need to look up CREATE PROCEDURE instead. In either case, you'll also need to read up on SPL (stored procedure language). If you decide to get into C or Java programming, you must have IUS, and you need to do a lot more manual bashing. -- Jonathan Leffler (jleffler@informix.com, jleffler@earthlink.net) Guardian of DBD::Informix v0.60 -- see http://www.perl.com/CPAN #include <disclaimer.h>
