Hi,
I know how you feel my friend, count yourself lucky you don't use Informix
in the combination aswell - now that's a real pain in the bottom ;o)
I've just got back from my hols and will very soon be trying version 4.0.6.
>From what you're saying I'm in for fun.
I don't think you're brain dead as I agree that there always seems to be
problems with the SCO build. I've spent a great number of hours getting new
releases to build and in turn then helping others mainly off-list to do the
same.
If I manage to get 4.0.6 to build I'll let you know.
