- Hi Ingres Gurus,
-
- I am going to develop an application using Ingres 4GL, I would like to be able
- to enter the search criteria in Subscript and Superscript e.g.
- H2O as H then subscript 2 then O rather than string H2O. Ingres then
- retrieve rows and columns and display results as Subscript and Superscript
- strings on the screen (character-based terminals). It must be WYSIWYG i.e
- H2O must be displayed as H then subscript 2 then O in the column or field.
-
- Has anyone done this before in anyway or form ?
-
- Is there a 3rd Party Package out there we can use as a front end to Ingres
- which supports Superscript and Subscript ?
-
- Do we need a graphics-based terminal to display the Superscript and
- Subscript characters?
-
- We are using Ingres 6.4 (No Windows) on Pyramid UNIX platform. All suggestions
- or comments are welcome.
-
- Thanks
