No clue. But I figure that I've used up my quota for 2017 for complaining
about the 4D language. So, now it's up to you ;--) I am with you on the
lack of comprehensive documentation. That's pretty much inexcusable and
definitely *not* industry standard. Deep, detailed technical docs are the
baseline for anything to do with coding these days. Bar. Not. Cleared.
