Jan,

 

If you Google “change date and time on a file”, you’ll see dozens.  I’ve
used several of these, they’re free and all work about the same.

I want to make a number of files (pdf,doc, etc.) have the same date time
information.

Does any one know how to do that?

I have successfully changed my lineend to the same on all my databases over
the weekend. You command helped make it painless.

Dan,

 

If you do not have many tables and there fields are TEXT or NOTE  you might
try

UPDATE TABLE tablename SET colname=(SRPL(colname,'^',(CHAR(254)),0)) WHERE
colname CONTAINS '^'

appropriate cautions about backing up database before trying
substitute for '^' and CHAR(254) where appropriate in above command

I think I will change all my databases to the funny looking b. Now I have to
figure out the best way to do this.

 

I will have to change the lineend but I have to change the data somehow. I
am thinking I will have to do an unload, search/replace.

The funny looking b is ascii character 254

 

The other one is the caret (above 6 on the US keyboard.)

 

254 is preferable because it is far less likely to occur in text.

 

FYI it looks like a little filled in square in DOS and the Windows R>
screen.

What is the default character for lineend?

 

I have seen both the weird looking b þ

 

and
