How early Microdata. I have one client with November 1975 written source
code and it's the traditional
OPEN FILE1 TO F.FILE1 ELSE PRINT ELONGATED VERBOSE ERRORMESSAGE
OPEN FILE2 TO F.FILE2 ELSE PRINT ELONGATED VERBOSE ERRORMESSAGE
for their core programs, opening dozens of files.
Thanks.

The whole premise was to use the existing reports that are presently
designed and not re-engineer them.
Like many systems, this one is full of finished reports (both english and
databasic) and the object is to send them to the hold-file and convert from
there. I don't want to re-invent the report
Can't say for sure. I remember seeing it in one of the old programs
that I had to work on in 1976/77.
So I'm guessing very early Basic. After all, as we all know. Kevin
only wanted to get a football program running. So he probably didn't
worry that much about data files.

Do you mean Ken Simms?

Mark:
I would say this is legitimate if one is reading from, or opening, a
prioritized list of files. For instance, say I want to get a configuration
parameter and want to:
READ ParameterValue FROM ParameterFile.Fv, ParameterId THEN...ELSE...
This parameter can come from any of several files
Senioritis has set in. Yes Ken Simms.

This is not the first time people have referenced 'classrooms' where
programming was learned. Any specific classrooms where Pick/MV was taught
besides the VAR's seminars. Specifically a formal accredited environment for
Pick/MV and not just some left-over Pascal-era or contemporary teachings.

That school is very diverse and doesn't offer any standardization that seems
to come up every once in a while on this forum. I appreciate the humor but
I'm really trying to learn where people are taught their Pick/MV techniques
(and defend them as gospel as they have been taught) as opposed to
Play on words, eh? There's just no official standards despite what many
imply.

Are you implying it would be better if
Taking advice from others on this list, I wrote a small program to compare
the execution time of extracting 1 elements from an MV list using
FOR/NEXT loop with 1,I delimiters verus using LOOP/WHILE with REMOVE. I
should note this was done on Unidata 6.0.3.
All the previous comments are still
Wow, you pegged me properly. I once bought an SP-JOBS utility for D3
(allegedly) and it was somewhat incomplete and had a few bugs that it
basically taught me what to write and I wrote my own.
P.S. If not for anything else, Microdata had one of the best spooler
manager.
Thanks.
