Harold, In answer to your question about getting Informix error messages from within a 4gl program... Try using the err_get or err_print functions built into Informix (at least starting with rev 4.1. err_get: returns a character string containing the error message - let error_message = err_get (status) err_print: prints the error message to the error line call error_message (status) Hope this helps! +-------------------------------+----------------------------------------+ | Cathy Kipp | Internet: ckipp@vth1.vth.colostate.edu | | Veterinary Teaching Hospital | | | Colorado State University | Voice: (303) 491-1294 | | Fort Collins, CO 80523 | Fax: (303) 491-1205 | +-------------------------------+----------------------------------------+
