Ralph, 1. There are some reporting tools that will do this: mvQuery for one. 2. If you are using UniVerse 10, you can generate XML out of RetrieVe and SQL. Take a look at the TOXML ATTRIBUTES syntax. This goes to screen, but you can divert this to file using a paragraph to do a DIVERT.OUT ON

The RETURNING clause returns a multi-attributed array of error codes, one attribute for each error. The attributes themselves may be multivalued, depending on the error. The first value is the error code, as found in ERRMSG/ENGLISH.MSG. Any other values are data to be inserted in the error
