Memo: Re: [U2] VOC Out-Of-Date Error Message
Hi Bill, Updating the VOC in each is part of the process when upgrading Universe versions. This involve copying VOC entries from the NEWACC file in the UV account to the VOC in each user account. If there is already an entry in the user account VOC with the same ID but of a different type (e.g. cataloged user programs), then the update process saves the existing entry to the TEMP file. LIST-ITEM TEMP to examine these entries and then make a judgement as to which version of the VOC entry you need. If you want to keep the original entry, then copy it back to the VOC. hth Brutzman, Bill [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 04 May 2005 18:17 Please respond to u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Sent by:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To:'u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org' u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org cc: bcc: Subject:[U2]VOC Out-Of-Date Error Message Using HP-Ux 11i with UniVerser 10.1, I get the following error message.

Re: [U2] Software development - MVTools
Sounds like The Programmers Helper which is a parameter-less source code generator. In my travels I tend to shudder when a new client has a 4GL, whether commercial or home-grown. Primac, Vercon, Info-Quest, Datamaster, Screen-Gen, Wizard, Gull etc. I'm just getting into the Accuterm GUI designer and it could worth a look. Creates VB-looking screen with a GUI editor and a full-screen code editor. A tad un-documented but Peter Schellenbach is incredibly helpful with any questions. I'm planning to consider it for any of my standard green screen clients that are considering GUI. You still have to code the logic by hand. But the 'objects' behave 85% like VB's and you have to be aware that neither designer screens are RUN screens. Each GUI program is stand-alone which means that you can gradually replace green screens over time. It is really a regular RUN program that works with the emulator for the magic.

RE: [U2] [UV] uniadmin without having to be in administrators group?
JayJay, Thanks for the reply. I guess my point is that we WANT to grant a user complete usage of ALL the functions within uniadmin. However, we specifically do not want them to be a windows system administrator in order to use the tool. And yes, its ok if this individual can stop and start UV services - just those 2 or 3 services that are IN the uniadmin tool. But we don't want them to control other aspects of the server that are inherent when you are in the administrator's group. It seems like there is a need to have a administrator maintained group code that can be associated with users that need to use the tool and the tool checks to make sure the user trying to use it is a member of said group. This would accomplish our objective without granting unnecessary priveleges.

RE: [U2] [UV] DESCRINFO(key, variable)
I seem to recall it being there in uv 9.3 7 years ago or so. Never thought of a good use for it though. You can't create variables dynamically, so you pretty much know what you have already. 1 possible use: A function that takes a filename and returns either the opened file variable or an error message. I wouldn't ever use anything like that, but who know.

RE: [U2] [UV] uniadmin without having to be in administrators group?
If you're on *nix platform you may be able to use SUDO ( http://www.sudo.ws/ ) that allows you to run certain commands as that may require root (or root-like access). I think many of the UVADMIN (or UDAMIN) commands require root or admin (WINDOWS) access to run O/S commands that require that access level. Then again it's almost Friday, and I don't want to overwork myself. =) Thanks, -- Donald Verhagen Application Development Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tandem Staffing Solutions, Inc. 1690 S Congress Avenue, Suite 210 Delray Beach, FL 33445 USA Voice Phone: 561.454.3592 Fax Phone: 561.454.3640 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 4:30:20 PM 05/05/2005 Your idea about UV administrator group is one that we have wanted on our UV/Linux server too. Too many of the UV admin tools require root priviledges on the Unix servers. UV should not require root or system administrator privileges, but the admin functions should be assignable to a group of users. I agree IBM needs to make this type of mod to Universe. Ken Hall At 11:32 AM 5/5/2005, you wrote: JayJay, Thanks for the reply. I guess my point is that we WANT to grant a user complete usage of ALL the functions within uniadmin. However, we specifically do not want them to be a windows system administrator in order to use the tool. And yes, its ok if this individual can stop and start UV services - just those 2 or 3 services that are IN the uniadmin tool. But we don't want them to control other aspects of the server that are inherent when you are in the administrator's group. It seems like there is a need to have a administrator maintained group code that can be associated with users that need to use the tool and the tool checks to make sure the user trying to use it is a member of said group. This would accomplish our objective without granting unnecessary priveleges.

RE: [U2] Integer Conversion Codes
Check out the Administering Universe Manual for the use of Flavors if you want to use the conversion in dictionaries. Note: this changes the default ways TCL, PROC, BASIC are intrepreted. It is a major change in an existing account that can get you into lots of trouble. Only use flavors when loading accounts from a foreign (non-Universe) source. Note: If you want to use this conversion code only in a BASIC program, check out the $OPTIONS statement in BASIC to set only that program to Reality Flavor. Note: there is very little documentation about how commands at TCL or BASIC work in REALITY flavor, especially conversions. You will need a REALITY manual to determine the syntax to use, but test everything carefully. You can get very unexpected results when you mix flavors.
