All:

 

Rbase 9.5(64) Single User, Win 7

 

Summary:

a)   The GATEWAY command at the R>Prompt fails completely to draw data into
the target table;

b)   The GATEWAY tool, with or without a specification, loads everything
correctly with the exception of the AUTONUM column, which populates with
NULLs.

 

I have a simple table with an autonum column:

 

List table opcashbalance

 

Cashbalid integer   not null  autonumber

Cashdate  date

Cashbal   currency

Cashavg   currency

Cashdelta currency

Cashmin   currency

 

With an XLSX (single worksheet) source file, the following command fails to
draw data in:

 

GATEWAY IMPORT XLS d:\00\gway\gway_opcashbalance.xlsx +

APPEND opcashbalance +

OPTION AUTONUM ON +

|FIRST_ROW 2

 

When the XLSX file is saved as CSV, the following command fails to draw data
in:

 

GATEWAY IMPORT CSV d:\00\gway\gway_opcashbalance.csv +

APPEND opcashbalance +

OPTION AUTONUM ON +

|FIRST_ROW 2

 

When the process is worked through the GATEWAY tool, everything imports
except the AUTONUM column, which populates with NULLs.

 

Am I missing something here, or should I generate the autonum value in the
source file and learn to love the LOAD command?

 

Thanks
