Re: Issues with Context Assist.

[Jason Olson <josys36@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am in an SQL RPG yes. As far as  'Automatic Syntax checking of SQL
Statements (performed on the server)' also checked?, it would be what ever
the defaults were when I installed 9.9. Sometimes these settings are almost
impossible to locate.

Also, at times content assist does not function at all. Right now I have a
SQL RPG open, I'm inside the code, and hitting control + space is doing
nothing. If I go to Edit, at the bottom Content Assist is grayed out.

It's very hit or miss. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.


Thanks,
