Re: [U2] Friday query logic
Can you do a SELECT to select the ones WITH EVERY FIELD LIKE SF... SH... and then do NSELECT to select the inverse set? - Original Message - From: Jeffrey Butera [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] Friday query logic Date: Fri, 20 Jun 2008 11:25:30 -0400 I can't get my head around the proper query logic on this Friday. I have a FILE with mv FIELD containing strings. I want to query records where at least one of the FIELD values doesn't begin with SF... or SH To be clear: I don't want records if any of the following occurs: FIELD = 'SF123' FIELD = 'SH456' FIELD = 'SF123':@VM:'SH456' but I do want records if any of these occur: FIELD='PQ789' FIELD='SF123':@VM:'XY789' FIELD='SF123':@VM:'SH456':@VM:'GH789' I tried SELECT FILE WITH FIELD UNLIKE SF...SH... and SELECT FILE WITH FIELD UNLIKE SF... AND FIELD UNLIKE SH... but those include records where FIELD='SF123':@VM:'SH456'. Then I tried SELECT FILE WITH NO FIELD LIKE SF...SH... and SELECT FILE WITH NO FIELD LIKE SF... AND NO FIELD LIKE SH... but that throws out records where FIELD='SF123':@VM:'SH456':@VM:'GH789' which I need to keep. I've tried some others variants using 'EVERY' but to no avail. So, I'm as a loss short of writing a I-descriptor. Anyone have their logic cap on today? -- Jeff Butera, Ph.D. Administrative Systems Hampshire College [EMAIL PROTECTED] 413-559-5556 Email gives the illusion of progress even when nothing is happening. unknown --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] Friday query logic
I experimented with it and got much closer with: SELECT FILE WITH EVERY FIELD UNLIKE SF... AND WITH EVERY FIELD UNLIKE SH... It is not quite what you want but much closer.

RE: [U2] Friday query logic {unclassified}
Jeffrey, I've found that WHEN, instead of WITH, is better at limiting the values returned to a select. i.e. SELECT FILE WHEN FIELD UNLIKE SF... OR WHEN FIELD UNLIKE SH...

[U2] RE: UV 10.2.7 change in behaviour for XML
Brian The generated XML did include both nodes as shown in my example. using 10.1 gives ROOT REF.CODES_XML TABLE_GENDER TABLE_GENDER_VA-MV/ ... etc using 10.2.7 gives only one of the nodes ROOT REF.CODES_XML TABLE_GENDER_VA-MV/ ... etc I would have been happy to lose the REF.CODES_XML node but not the node defining the item within the file. Have we found a bug where the wrong one has been eliminated.
