[U2] ODBC text field
I am having trouble importing a multivalued field into SQL via odbc. I would like to remove all control characters (including value marks) from the string. I have tried using an I-Type with OCONV but this failed. I would be grateful if anyone could share how they have done this.

RE: [U2] ODBC text field
If you're using ODBC won't the multivalue be normalised into a separate table? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 27 April 2005 10:24 To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] ODBC text field I am having trouble importing a multivalued field into SQL via odbc.

RE: [U2] ODBC text field
Graham, From memory... have you set it up with M in attribute 6 and an association phrase name in 7. ED DICT MY.FILE MY.MV.FIELD 1 I an mv i-type field ... 6 M 7 MY.MV.PHRASE ED DICT MY.FILE MY.MV.PHRASE 1 PH Asssociated MV set phrase 2 MY.MV.FIELD [MY.ASSOCIATED.MV.FIELD ...] I think the UVODBC driver should just expand out the phrase as a separate table... But maybe you then need to run the HS.UPDATE.FILEINFO command. Stuart -Original Message- I am having trouble importing a multivalued field into SQL via odbc.

RE: [U2] ODBC text field
Graham I'm assuming that you mean to return the multivalued field as a single valued text field. If your are on UniVerse (you don't say) try the following ITYPE expression: CONVERT(@VM:@SVM, , OCONV(@RECORDn,MCP)) Where 'n' is the field number of the field to return. Also make sure field 6 is set to S Brian -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 27 April 2005 10:24 To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] ODBC text field I am having trouble importing a multivalued field into SQL via odbc.

Sorry, I am on Unidata and I am trying to return as a single value text field rather than normalise.
