Hello everyone,
For a change, I don't have pipeline questions right now.
I took some time to understand the "instore", "outstore", "synch" and
"juxtapose" stages, and I do understand, now, how Rob's example work.
So I just wanted to thank you all, and to mention that the MDISKID EXEC
example of the pipeline docs *really* helped me to understand how
"juxtapose" worked.
And this really help me to understand why "sync" had to be used before
"juxtapose", and to understand the rest of Rob's example.

That's the moment when I'm calling for help !
That's fine. Most plumbers here are willing to give a hand...
Now I can play with your pipeline, and try to understand its stages.
Understand new things is always exciting !
(realize that I can't see what's in front of me is not ^^)
With CMS Pipelines, learning new things is often very productive. The
time you invest in learning a new trick frequently pays back very soon
and gives time to learn more things. I still learn something new about
CMS Pipelines every day (though more and more things that I just
forgot ;-)
(by the way, one thing I didn't think of at the time, was to search for
occurences of "juxtapose" and its friends in the forum. I'll do that ...)
Make sure you have a copy of the the Author's Edition (from the CMS
Pipelines home page) or the Author's Help if you want to understand
the stages. The CMS books are less accurate and frequently harder to
read.
I fear that my blog entries will get too confusing for apprentice plumbers.
"juxtapose" is a good one to learn. You need that for example when you
process files like the USER DIRECT that have sections of related
records.
