(RADIATOR) What does this mean?

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Craig -

If your Client definitions are in a ClientListSQL clause, you cannot 
use a file reference for the hook code (the database field itself must 
contain the hook code). This is less than useful I know.

To address this issue, one of our Radiator users contributed this (from 
the goodies directory):

Alternatively, you could use a PreClientHook in the normal way.

regards

Hugh
