Check Rel Notes for 7.14 and The Book for 7.20. The variables listed in RN in 7.14 are still valid in 7.20, but if you never find those in The Book for 7.20 Also my megawish is that Informix QA worked much harder to catch those pesky bugs much earlier. How is it possible to introduce new bugs in dbimport/dbexport after all those years it was around ?! The bottom line is - we need quality much more than those numerous gimmecks about megatechnology which work well for managers but not for the people who use and support the product. Cheers Ilya
