Is there any document that shows all the IBIS_ variables and their possible values? And also what they mean.

Nothing new since this, eh?

I'm still hoping for some of those "secrets" to be revealed ... Smiler

Techsupport will probably not tell you if it is used for internal actions ... or they may not know. If you have the time, you can work your way through all the .wfs files. They are relatively easy to navigate. Once you determine the order that they are called, you can then just follow your nose to see what everything does. That is how I did it a couple of years ago. I would share, but I tossed all those notes I took. Besides, I wouldn't want to rob you of the satisfaction of cracking that nut!

Another way is to do a search of the js and htm files to see which ones are used, and sometimes what parameters are supplied.

Not perfect, but can help in the understanding.

Thanks for the responses. I asked tech support about the IBIS variables and am satisfied at the response.
