Manual install of XI -- running since 2019
Version of XI - Installed Version: 5.8.6

In a sample query - it has trailing "!!!" - what are those for? I tried to look at the special character documentation - but couldn't see it.

Hi seaward1983,

Enthusiasm - they let the server know we really really want to run the command. ; -)

Actually, they're being used as a pad and a delimiter in some parts of the application -- it just looks more dramatic that it should.

Thanks and Best Regards,
Keith
