Yeah, good point Cellbloc. I must admit, I'd never even noticed the inclusion of the dbChr$ command!
I'm not setting out to knock TGC, most of us in here like the product or we wouldn't be here. But many of us struggle at times to achieve things and push the boundaries and I really think that we as customers are sold short by inadequate documentation. It really shouldn't take too much resource to address this, but despite this being raised by others in the past I have yet to see anyone from TGC stand up and address this.
A fully documented command set is the absolute bare minimum that any programmer should expect, and to be honest, there is a lot more information they could provide which would give us more insight into mechanisms deployed beneath the commands.
No matter how good your code is, someone will improve on it
