Running on Suse 9.0, IDS 9.40, RDS 7.32UC1 The following code example always displays "other". The value retrieved by select is '3' (one char) Works fine with 7.20UD7 on sco. database master_db define g_one_char char(1) MAIN case lib() when '1' display 'one' when '2' display 'two' when '3' display 'three' when '9' display 'error' otherwise display 'other' end case END MAIN FUNCTION lib() define ret_val char(1) select orders_by into ret_val from global return ret_val END FUNCTION Is this a known bug? Should I log a call? TIA Michael
