I don't know if this would make much of a difference, but you might try it to see.

CREATE VIEW vwTranDups (CustNum, tr_date, ch_code) +
 AS SELECT custnum, tr_date, ch_code +
 FROM tran_daily WHERE tr_type = 1 +
 GROUP BY custnum, tr_date, ch_code +
 HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
SELECT COUNT (*) INTO vzzz FROM vwTranDups
WHILE vzzz > 0 then
 PAUSE 2 USING  'Check the next screen for duplicate charges. +
You may have duplicate charges for a patient.  Highlight the +
duplicate charge and press F9 to Delete it.'=50 &vpopt
   EDIT USING trancpa WHERE tr_type = 1 +
   AND custnum = +
   (SELECT custnum from vwtrandups +
    WHERE tr_date = tran_daily.custnum +
      AND ch_code = tran_daily.ch_code +
      AND custnum = tran_daily.custnum )
 SELECT COUNT (*) INTO vzzz FROM vwTranDups
ENDWHILE


-- You will have to test the correlated select clause - I might have mistyped something.

Hi Albert

Here is that other block of code I talked about that should show the Dups if
they were doubled entered into the Tran_daily table
This is why I think the code was run twice or the computer skipped a beat
or something.  I would think 2 Delete Dups with Eqnull ON and this should
catch any dups in the Tran_daily file

Thanks Marc

Marc, try adding a USING clause to the DELETE DUPLICATES command, and specify the columns to be used for the duplicate check.

Hi
Out of 100 offices this has happened only about 6 times in a year. I think it is from
computer hiccups but I am wanting to make my code as tight as possible.
Basically we put charges and payments in a Tran_daily file. At the end of the day if everything is correct we Close the day, do some updates, move the charges and payments to the Tran_Hist table and summaries the totals in a Recap table with the
date on it, then delete the Tran_daily rows.
About 90% of the rows from the Tran_daily table got copied (inserted) into the Tran_Hist table twice for 2/8/08. This office has used my app for 10 years and this is the first time it has happened to them. I told them if the same code works 99% of the time and one day
screws up it is not the code/RBase it is a computer quirk.
Below is a summary of the code, is there a better way to do this or trap for errors?
Sorry this is so long
Marc

DELETE DUPLICATES FROM tran_daily --so this should have stopped the dups in the Hist
 SET VAR vdaycnt INTEGER = NULL
 SELECT COUNT (*) INTO vdaycnt FROM tran_daily
 SET VAR vhistcnt INTEGER = NULL
 SELECT COUNT (*) INTO vhistcnt FROM tran_hist
 -- copy tran_daily TO tran_hist
 INSERT +
 INTO tran_hist (custnum,date ......... +
 ................,modf4  FROM tran_daily
 SET VAR vhistcnte INTEGER = NULL
 SELECT COUNT (*) INTO vhistcnte FROM tran_hist
 IF vhistcnte <> (.vdaycnt + .vhistcnt) THEN
   PAUSE 1 USING 'Some data was not copied to the History file '
 ENDIF
if this poped up they didn't remember it

 *(insert RECAP FILE WITH TOTALS FOR DAY)
 INSERT INTO recap (............ , tptpay,+
 VALUES (.vdate, ................ '1',.vtvisa)

 DELETE ROWS FROM tran_daily
 SET VAR vrecapchar CURRENCY = 0.00
 SET VAR vrecappay CURRENCY = 0.00
 SET VAR vrecapchar CURRENCY = tcharges IN recap WHERE COUNT = LAST
 SET VAR vrecappay CURRENCY = tpayment  IN recap WHERE COUNT = LAST
 IF tcharge =  .vrecapchar AND totpay = .vrecappay THEN
   PAUSE 1 USING 'Finished Recap Created' ICON confirm  ....

   PAUSE 1 USING +
