Hi Chapin, >1. The DDS ALIAS is available via ODBC as well >as the other languages you mentioned. How? I cannot locate any way to ALTER TABLE an existing file. I can do it via CREATE TABLE, but the tables are created by Synon-generated DDS. >4. I have a utility that you can install as a precompiler >step (via a subsystem router entry) that will convert >the TEXT keyword source entries to ALIAS keywords, >and any illegal ALIAS characters to underscores whenever >you "gen" a file. That's the path we took. Gen the file and modify the DDS before CRTPF. Thanks for the additional validation of the method!
