Yes, I understand. However, seeing that we have gone 6 years with this never being an issue, I think we should just shoot for #1 and keep open to the idea of having a compatibility mode, and the possibility that #1 may not fit for all SET variables and we may have to do some special cases for those. My guess is that we should implement #1 and see what feedback we get in 7.3. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
