Re: [U2] unidata err
I don't think I've ever seen that reported on Windows. Typically - the sbcs daemon (Shared Basic Code Server) is not running. On Windows, literally sbcs.exe. It could also indicate a problem with Windows memory mapped files - that we've used to mimic UNIX shared memory as well as message queues. AE is a globally cataloged UniBasic program. Your udt process is trying to send a message to the sbcs daemon asking that AE be loaded into shared memory (or confirmed to already be loaded) and then send back the address of the object so it can be run. 'to msgq' refers to the sbcs request queue (sbcs listens on this queue for requests from udt processes). There is also an sbcs reply queue that udt processes listen on for responses from sbcs.

Re: [U2] Microdata Conversion
> From: Ed Clark > With all those options, there's no reason to consider > D3 if you rely on PQN procs. I'll agree with all of Ed's other comments - except that one. You can get RPL for D3, which is essentially compiled PQN. All of your F-OPEN, F-READ, and &/!/%/# buffers are there, plus more. So D3 is as much on the table as any other platform. I don't think anyone has mentioned QM yet, but I believe there is strong support for PQN there as well. One of my clients, a regular here, took several months to migrate dicts from Pick-style A/S correlatives to Unidata. Major pain. Of all of the platforms available, I'd think Unidata is the most difficult for migration of a really full-featured app. Reality probably supports Microdata better than anyone - including full PQN support. Unless you feel compelled to move from a Pick-based platform to a Prime-based platform with support for Pick flavors, there's really no need to go that route. Bottom line is that you can go anywhere you want with relative equal pain or lack thereof. Given that technically most of the options are equivalent, my inclination would be to go with the strongest vendor, best product support, best options for the future, etc. HTH Tony Gravagno Nebula Research and Development TG@ remove.pleaseNebula-RnD.com Nebula R&D sells mv.NET and other Pick/MultiValue products worldwide, and provides related development services remove.pleaseNebula-RnD.com/blog Visit PickWiki.com!

Re: [U2] Microdata Conversion
Mark, How tightly is spooler manipulation integrated into the application? I'm wondering if compatibility will affect your decision. Aren't there some significant differences amongst the various choices?

Re: [U2] Microdata Conversion
Basically, the road ahead is wide open and the future is bright. I've heard good things about Reality. They seem to be making a comeback. That would be an easy move. jbase has a reality emulation and was written by microdata people. Both universe and unidata have reality/microdata flavors. Cache has a Reality emulation, and Reality applications migrate to it easily. I'm biased, but you should really look at Cache. With all those options, there's no reason to consider D3 if you rely on PQN procs. mvBase does a form of PQN proc, but I don't know how compatable it is. From the documentation, it looks like it's all there. On Nov 3, 2009, at 10:09 AM, MAJ Programming wrote: To All: The day is finally approaching.
