RE: A sequence, by any other name

Darnit, I hit "Send Now" by accident! Anyway, to sum up what my previous post said, my thoughts are: - When returning the field defenitions return the "lowest" field definition. In other words, don't return the name of a sequence that contains other sequences. - When returning the data elements return the "lowest" field value. Oh by the way, I looked at the documentation on MSDN and ran screaming when I saw the specifics about writing an ODBC driver. I think it would be great to have and EDS ODBC driver but the sequence thing will be a hurdle. Like I rambled in my other post, you could stop supporting EUSQL and go to strictly ODBC. However, some non-Windows folks might still want EUSQL. ONE more thing...I noticed when using 'select * from table' the field listing returned is '*'. Would it be possible to return ALL field names? Just a thought. Jonas
