          database.)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
#29  $10  WDSc 5.1 now provides a wizard in the Remote Systems LPEX
          editor for creating a new procedure.  This line item would add
          more wizards (like those found in the CODE editor.)

          what is shown in the outline view
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
#37  $20  Provide scripting support for Remote Systems LPEX editor to
          make it easier for you to customize the editor and add
          your own functions
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
#38  $25  Editor support for embedded SQL such as prompting, parsing,
          and token highlighting.
