Hi Dale
Since the people objecting are not the people who actually USE your system
day to day,
a better approach is to look to the functionality in your system, and decide
how to partition this so that you can shine up the exposed parts in ways

Rocket Software had to write a parser for Unidata and Universe in Eclipse
to accomplish what the U2 compilers do.
I guess they are trying to use regular parsing tools for what just isn't a
standard language: UniBasic doesn't follow normal syntax rules.
And of course, it only works if you're
Since the index files are actually type 25 files, you can always (though of
course I would NEVER recommend this ... ) create a file pointer direct to
the INDEX.nnn and read the entries as records ... saves grabbing a select

iterate through it programmatically.
That's quick and unlike the external SQL access (e.g. ODBC) it doesn't try

and I'll wipe out a fix in three days :)
Well for a start I didn't say there's anything wrong, I said it could be

But as to specifics, take the following scenario (UniVerse specific):

Yes, it uses a really nice and well-designed B+Tree for the index keys but
once you're down to the data (the primary keys) they are stored in a regular
record format with @FM between each key. You can see that easily enough as
you can create a pointer to the
Getting back to the original question:
In most, but not all cases, I use:
UniVerse = (socket) = .NET Service - Web Service
Where the .net service is not necessarily on the same machine as UniVerse
(security/firewalling restrictions). Using UniVerse sockets to drive
services is something I do in
