It could be : that 5.01 has not fixed it. It's been a while and I don't have a code example : handy, but I recall that we had trashed memory when we used rtypmsize to set : sqllen as shown in the book. The problem disappeared if we set sqllen to : rtypmsize + 1. I am not sure if there is a bug in rtypmsize, or if the example : in the book is wrong. I missed the exact problem being reported here, but there was a problem with rtypmsize when using DATE-TIME and INTERVAL datatypes in version 5. This is a "known problem" which I was informed of after I tracked it down and called Informix to report it.
