RE: Timestamp
For those not familiar: SYSTEM(19) on D3: Returns a unique item-id consisting of the current system date in internal format, followed immediately by the current system time in seconds. If more than one item-id is generated in a second, an alpha character is appended to the item-id.

RE: Optimisation ?
Jonathan: Despite the digression about your code, I think the TRIM() function should work just fine. On D3, however, no matter how many leading or trailing @VMs exist, a single @VM remains at the beginning and/or end of the string. This is true even with Glenn's suggestion, TRIM(REC1, @VM, R). This works fine on U2, but if you need to port to D3 you'd need to revert to a modified version of the code you included below. Hope this helps. Bill -Original Message- Behalf Of Jonathan Leckie Sent: Thursday, March 25, 2004 4:29 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Optimisation ? I have the following piece of code : IF REC1 £ '' THEN MAX=DCOUNT(REC1,VM) FOR LOP=1 TO MAX IF REC1,LOP = '' THEN REC=DELETE(REC,1,LOP,0) IF LOP = MAX THEN GO 300 LOP=LOP-1 END NEXT LOP END I wonder could this simply be replaced with : IF REC1 £ '' THEN REC1=TRIM(REC1,@VM) GO 300 END Can anyone see any problems with using TRIM to remove trailing, repeated and initial value markers and therefore achieving the same effect without looping through each multi-value? This is on Unidata 3.3.2 incidentally. -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
RE: UniOLEDB and ASP
John: Try opening IIS MMC and navigate to the web site you're interested in. Then right click on the web site, click on properties and select the Web Site tab. In the bottom section you probably have Enable Logging checked so click on the [Properties] button. The location, and name, of the log file(s) should be visible. Hope this helps.

You can either let IIS execute as administrator or raise the permissions of the user used BY IIS. Have in mind that that user is NOT the current logged one. Cheers!

RE: [UV] Variable never assigned a value warning
Marco: A useful alternative, which noone has ever fixed in over 25 years, is the message: [B10] in program MyProgram, Line 106: Variable has not been assigned a value; zero used. or [B10] in program MyProgram, Line 106: Nonnumeric where numeric required; zero used. Why in the world hasn't it been fixed to display: [B10] in program MyProgram, Line 106: InvoiceNo has not been assigned a value; zero used. or [B10] in program MyProgram, Line 106: InvoiceNo = A; Nonnumeric where numeric required; zero used. Stupid questions for the exasperated business developer? Bill -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Martin Phillips Sent: Wednesday, March 03, 2004 12:42 AM To: U2 Users Discussion List Subject: Re: [UV] Variable never assigned a value warning Marco, The easy answer is no. This would require the compiler to establish all possible paths through a program and determine whether it was possible to arrive at any place that uses a variable without setting it first. Although some compilers (many C compilers for example) make a good attempt at this, there are always cases that cannot be resolved. As a very simple example, consider the following: BEGIN CASE CASE A = 1 B = 'Apple' CASE A = 2 B = 'Orange' CASE A= 3 B = 'Banana' END CASE DISPLAY B Clearly, if A is not 1, 2 or 3 B will not be assigned when we get to the DISPLAY statement. But, the compiler cannot treat this as an error/warning because the author of the program may know that A can only have these values. We do not want to have to set variables explicitly for cases that cannot happen. Incidentally, I find the worryingly common practice of setting all variables to zero / null at the top of a program very annoying as it hides the very useful unassigned variable trap, leaving you thinking your program works when actually it doesn't I am told that a UV user somewhere has asked for this trap to be optional. I wouldn't like to try to support their code!
