    function Key in emacs on IBM

    Hello Everyone, This is a question about emacs. As you can see below, the OS seems to be sending the same key sequences whether it is on HPUX or IBM AIX. It seems for whatever reason that uemacs is not acting the same way on them. Please see the key sequences below for more...

    Why Is Progress Still Here?

    PEGgers don't need no pity Just a observation, those people who don't like Progress really don't know much about it. They sure don't belong here.

    error 657 -> codepage

    Pegers, There are some special characters in our database and they are messing up the reports. The special characters are chr(1-31) and chr(128-255). Those special characters are in the address fields. So what I try to do is to use "substring" on each character, but I ran into the error...
