i believe the solution to your problem is to deactivate variable
substition on tr in p.tr
[i'm assuming you have declared a c variable called tr - there is
where the problem lies]

the retrieve statement would then read:

##		retrieve (seq=1+max(int1(right(p.#tr,2))))

problem is that equel will do variable substition on database,
relation, and field names if a variable has been defined to ingres
with that name (## type cvar  - type declaration).
