Mike,

On the whole database or just a table?

If just a table I suspect that you are including the computed column in your 
list of columns to unload.
As long as you include both the component columns and define the computed in 
whatever table you are going to LOAD back into you should be alright as the 
computed column will be filled by R:Base.

Regards,
Alastair.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - UNLOAD error

Hi All,
When I try to do an UNLOAD on my database, I get this...

-ERROR- Column BP1 exists as both a computed and non-computed column. ( 195)
You must rename the non-computed column before you can do an UNLOAD.

When I try to find which table(s) have the offending column(s) I get this....

R>list column BP1

Column Name Table Name         Attributes
------------------ ------------------ ---------------------------------------
BP1                VITALS0            Type   : TEXT 12
                                       Compute: 
((CTXT(SYSTOLIC1))+'/'+(CTXT(DIASTOLIC1)))

                       VITALS1            Type   : TEXT 12
                                       Compute: 
((CTXT(SYSTOLIC1))+'/'+(CTXT(DIASTOLIC1)))


Looking at the above, I see 2 identical definitions for the column called BP1.
Why is the UNLOAD failing?
Mike
