Can anybody else shed light on the >documentation? It wasn't documented for the first few years (maybe it is now) but the syntax is: call fgl_drawbox(height, width, row, column) The parameters may be in the wrong order (as it is from memory), but it wouldn't take long to verify the above with a test. This Informix function can also be used to draw a single solid line by just displaying a box with a height of only 1 char. You will be left with a slightly untidy line as the corners will still be there, however these can be blasted away with a display " " at the appropriate position.
