Once work in a shop where asterisk was pronounced "Nathan Hale" (sp?) since he had but one "as-te-risk" for his country. (I must have worked there nearly four months before somebody explained it to me.....) eric.delong@pmsi-services.com ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: RE: Ldate and opnqryf question Author: <MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com > at INET_WACO Date: 4/30/99 7:37 PM I use this for my QRYSLT when using a field DATEL from my database file and &DATEPARM from CLP: QRYSLT('DATEL *EQ "' *CAT &DATEPARM *TCAT '"') I prefer the double-quote over multiple single quotes (ticks) BTW, a fellow programmer who came out of Cittone Institute here in NJ was the first one to use the "tick". I think it sounds nuts to say "tick". He also says "Splat" for asterisk! Art Tostaine, Jr. CCA, Inc.
