No, it's there (he said, hopefully.) Though I am not looking as I type,
there are 'Application Preferences' and 'Document Preferences'. I _believe_
that this setting is in Document preferences, so if you didn't open a DB you
may have missed that.
At any rate, in FM5 and FM6 (and I do think FM4, but...) it's in one set and
not the other.
And if AS were being run from a Field, as is common, then this _would_ be a
problem. If the AS is in a Perform AS script step, then I don't think it
would even compile in there, but...
