But the issue of continuation of development and support has come up for a second time; along with it the nature of my character based software and some reactions to UviVerse as a product. This is an email from the assistant director of the Nashville fairgrounds: Subject: ITS Help Selecting New Software Importance: High Our Flea Market and Corporate Sales components have been utilizing proprietary software that is ancient, and without documentation for many years. It has not been supported by ITS, and there is only one known person in the Tennessee area that can serviced this software. With the upgrade to Windows 7, it will not operate. Obviously, we need to purchase a package that will provide the functionality we need and that can be supported by ITS. I am requesting a meeting, with the appropriate ITS staff at the earliest possible time; to identify our needs and possible software packages that can be installed. He is incorrect in most of his conclusions, but this is his perception. I have left behind a number of great systems that are now defunct because management viewed them as ancient. Does anyone else meet this attitude? My customer defended the system with the following email. Ken Who said our software was ancient? It is not, it aids in insuring the revenue stream for both Flea Market and Facility Rental, you are correct that the software is serviced by one individual since he wrote the program, his name is Dale Kelley and he has other members on his team that know the software in the event something happens to him. As far as the upgrade to Windows 7 who said that it will not operate? This is certainly not the case, the software can be updated to run with minimal effort. You can contact Dale Kelley if you like, I have copied him on this e-mail. Thank you for your time Deborah Deborah's defense included a small lie about the members of my team; I'm it. This system is written entirely in BASIC; no procs, no scripts. I always have the source code on the system; it's theirs to use as they wish. I would be happy to provide it for review. My question: is there anyone who would have any interest in taking over this and another government customer if I should become defunct or inoperable? I know there are some great people in Tennessee, but these guys could be supported from anywhere. I would also appreciate any advice on products and time required to mouse up the screens and present non-ancient images.

Back in the old Microdata days (yes, I'm that old), you could get in big trouble with the timeslice approach, though. If your timeslice was 50 ms, after that time everything you were doing got saved and the next process in line got the juice. There were certain things that released your timeslice, too, such as IO operations, etc. If you were doing disk access, and what you were working with got paged out of memory, you had to go get it again when your turn came around again. If that took too long, you went through the same thing again, and you might actually sit there all day and get nothing done. No wonder we worried about frame faulting. Ah, those were the days...

Re: [U2] Building an Excel File
sounds awesome tony, really. rocket shouldn't launch without it :-) On 2/7/2012 7:14 PM, Tony Gravagno wrote: Wil, while the OP asked about reading Excel on an iPhone, the title of the thread is Building an Excel File. That prompted suggestions for how to create Excel, including use CSV. Yes, all spreadsheet clients including Excel will open a CSV file. But that led to my assertion that CSV is not Excel and that CSV is not acceptable when people want Excel, though that is a common belief amongst MV developers because most end-users will just take what you give them ... and then they'll quietly start looking for people who will give them what they really want, Excel. This is a digression that you are welcome not to follow. About your statements - I'm intimately familiar with internals of Excel (Office in general), XML, CSV, and related document standards, and I have no idea what kind of middleware you're talking about below. CSV has no information about formatting, it's pure data. It's therefore impossible for any utility to do anything but autosize the columns, and that's trivial. As I said above, if all you're doing is opening the file, sure, that should work, but the result is hardly Excel outside of being text in columns and rows. You can't just simply 'change the Excel files into csv files'. Your statement doesn't survive the first attempt. Excel will warn you that it's going to lose detail if you do that. Again, CSV is not Excel. It doesn't provide borders, colors, images, cell references, merged cells, fonts, type styles, multiple sheets, named sheets, named ranges, file properties, page formatting, print pagination, fixed col/row settings, custom col/row sizes, or data typing. And while you can provide formulas in CSV, you'll lose them if you save Excel as CSV. [AD] And _that_ is the reason I created NebulaXLite, to allow programmers to do all of that from BASIC, on any OS, any DBMS, and with no underlying libraries. It's real workbooks for Excel, Open Office, and Google docs - when everyone else is ready to provide a delimited text file. T From: Wjhonson I think somewhere this jumped the track. No one is saying that CSV is Excel Rather the OP wanted a way to read an Excel file on the Iphone. Can the Iphone natively read Excel files? I know that it can natively read csv files, because we're doing it. It puts the csv file into a neat table with a border, with columns and rows all autosized and pretty with no effort whatsoever. So the solution could be simply to change the Excel files into csv files and voila you have no problem anymore for the Iphone. This doesn't address the issue of whether existing Excel files, or Excel files you receive from others can be handled. It only addresses the issue of reading Tables (of some kind) on the Iphone. ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users

Re: [U2] Sequential Files Question
How does this create a file? I've always code similar to the method David Green showed, since that works on all pick flavors instead of having to change my code every time I move to a different system. C:\Users\AllenElwoodhelp echo Displays messages, or turns command-echoing on or off. ECHO [ON | OFF] ECHO [message] Type ECHO without parameters to display the current echo setting. C:\echoc:\buddy.txt Access is denied. On 9/9/2010 9:47 AM, Rex Gozar wrote: OPENSEQ PATH TO SEQFILE THEN WEOFSEQ SEQFILE ON ERROR ABORTM WEOFSEQ FAILED!

Re: [U2] Sequential Files Question
I've been using DOS since 1.0 - forgot all about pipe didn't it used to be | ? btw, even though I'm the admin on my laptop, it will not allow me to even use notepad to save to c:\buddy.txt Must be a new windows 7 thing. On 9/9/2010 10:50 AM, Colin Alfke wrote: If you had the proper permissions you would have had a buddy.txt file with: ECHO is on. in the file. The '' redirects the output to the file indicated (creates it if it doesn't exist or overwrites it if it does). I use it to create a log from a batch file: Date /t batchfile.log Time /t batchfile.log The '' will append the output to the file. So, in the example he would likely want to do the WEOFSEQ SEQFILE to reset the record (although that will create the file as well so you might as well just do that...) Now that we're getting picky - the ABORTM statement doesn't exist in UniData either so you would need to use ABORT or STOP.
