Chitiea Sent: Friday, November 21, 2014 3:54 PM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - RE: Failure to PROJECT from VIEW: Education Needed So I created a test database with a simple table set, generated a view, then successfully PROJECTED the view rows into the projected table. Rhetorical question: Why has this behavior failed - after successful operation - in established databases? What conditions would prevent the projection of data rows? Why would it work now? Any perspective appreciated. Bruce -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bruce A.

STATICDB is set OFF in my startup configurations, and is OFF when having my issue.

Chitiea Sent: Thursday, November 20, 2014 1:39 PM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - Failure to PROJECT from VIEW: New Perspective All: I'm in a different database, running an RMD projecting from a view into a table "on the fly". Same failure, this time in a routine that was working without fail up through May 2014. The process works, if I change PROJECT <tablename> to PROJECT TEMP <tablename> Can anyone explain what is going on here? Much appreciated.

Chitiea Sent: Wednesday, November 19, 2014 9:28 AM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - Failure to PROJECT from VIEW All: This has to be basic. An RMD file successfully: - DROPs a previously PROJECTed table - DROPs a previously created VIEW - CREATEs a viable view - PROJECTs the view structure ... ... but fails to project any data rows. TRACE reports no errors in: <Snip> CREATE VIEW Chart_A500_Humpty_vw + ( FYear, Slab, InWall, Sewer, Member, Unknown ) AS + SELECT FYear, c74110, c74120, c74130, c74150, c74160 + FROM Chart_A500_Joinup_vw BROWSE * FROM Chart_A500_Humpty_vw + OPTION WINDOW_STATE MAXIMIZED PROJECT Chart_A500_ProjectTable + FROM Chart_A500_Humpty_vw + USING * + ORDER BY FYear BROWSE ALL FROM Chart_A500_ProjectTable <Snip> BROWSE for the projected table returns "No rows in table, INSERT a NULL row?". [Bruce Chitiea] Alternately, the columns are specified in the PROJECT command: USING FYear, Slab, InWall, Sewer, Member, Unknown ... without result. Thoughts?
