Buddy From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Monday, February 11, 2019 12:59 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [RBASE-L] - Working with external databases Karen, Where do you include the parameters you mentioned? In the delete or insert command string or the actual DELETE/INSERT command line? I don’t have any on the SCONNECT or SATTACH commands and the database connects and the table attaches correctly. Albert, You might have something there since the command is passed on to the access database (???). I will create a long command line and see if it helps. I always try to make my code readable and also, in the back of my mind, have the 80 character limit which might not even be applicable anymore…old habits die hard.

I will check with the creator of that database. Where would I add the userid and password on the SCONNECT command?

For example, the following command does not seem to work: DELETE ROWS FROM ASegmentData WHERE(ASubSection+ ASegmentID) + NOT IN (SELECT seg_chk FROM features WHERE sub_sys = 'CJC') If a project the attached table to a local table: PROJECT TEMPORARY BSegmentData FROM ASegmentData USING * And run the DELETE ROWS command on the projected table it works correctly so I know the syntax is correct, same thing with the INSERT INTO… command, works great on the projected table but not on the SATTACHEd table. I am obviously missing something because I am pretty sure R+Base can add/delete rows on external databases/tables and I believe I have done this before but I can’t seem to find that particular application. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Place the following code in a command file makings sure that vPOID has a valid value SET ERROR VAR hold SET VAR vchk = ReceiptStatus IN PODetail WHERE PO_ID = .vPOID AND ReceiptStatus = 'P' IF hold = 0 THEN Trace the code one line at the time looking at variables hold and vchk. Look at the value for vchk and hold after the code executes the second line. This should tell you how the ERROR VAR changes depending on whether you get a valid value for vchk or not.

I need to update old code that looks like this. SET ERROR VAR hold SET VAR vchk = ReceiptStatus IN PODetail WHERE PO_ID = .vPOID AND ReceiptStatus = 'P' IF hold = 0 THEN So is IF hold = 0 the same as IF SQLCODE = 0? Sorry such a dumb question.
