Dear Howard
VMark was the company that developed the UniVerse Data Base product for
which I have had much to do with for many years.
VMark acquired Unidata and renamed itself to Ardent Software. Ardent was
purchased by Informix and Informix was purchased by IBM.
IBM now sell and support
Trevor,
Indeed your suggestion reflects the views of many who have replied to my
post. It is the least painful and most-certain way for us to make the data
available for a few more years when the app will eventually be retired.
Since we don't have any knowledge on UV, invariably we'd have to pay
Also don't forget that Universe is a programming language as well as a
database.
In these sorts of cases a lot of people cost the movement of the data
itself and forget all about the cost of developing an application that
can actually do something with it.

Louie,
The answer I got was one user at a time. So there are many users, but
never more than one will use the app at any given time.

I'm working with some data from a system called Paciolan.
(http://www.paciolan.com) It tracks season ticket holders, etc., for
our athletics department. They keep sending spreadsheets with the 'tab'
named SBCLIENT, which made me curious.
So I hunted around on the web... Paciolan is listed as a

I'm working with some data from a system called Paciolan.
Just something to remember, when the accountants get *nailed* during an
audit, they are going to say:
but I.T. let us do it. THEY should have made sure the data was OK! And
THEY should have made sure there was an audit trail
Been there, done that. Bean counters *can* be a backstabbing bunch.

There are a number or current laws and regulations that attempt to rid
public corporations of this kind of mismanagement. The result of these new
regulations may not so much be the reduction of corporate financial and IT
mismanagement, but the transfer of responsibility to lower level
Wendy -
The Cal Athletic Department has a Paciolan ticketing system as well. It is,

I'm trying to debug a program using the UniDebugger in UV 10.1 but when
the program goes to do a WRITE to a file that a trigger on it, it's
breaking with the following message.

My code has comments that don't always relate to the code. And I
should probably step up the documentation to include the specific

done.
But, where I work we are all at will employees. Fired at will or
walk at will either way.
I reported something similar a while ago. I think it is due to the fact that
input is not allowed during a trigger subroutine. As as you are in the
debugger, input is required to step through the program you are debugging,
when the trigger fires the input is trapped. I think this is a bug, U2

Why is it us against them? as in IT vs the Bean counters? Duh...that is
where I always had my greatest problems as a project manager..getting IT and
financial to play nice in the same sandbox.
I hate to say it, but IT was always the worse of the two warring factions in
this regard.
The system that I had setup, allowed accountants to change any field on an
invoice. Believe it or not, that was the request. What they didn't know
was that I kept a simple before change/change request/after change snapshot
of the data along with date/time/logon as I had been warned about by a
Mostly true. But how many systems are being chosen by the beancounters
because they're standard? Not because it helps to improve sales,
manufacturing or operations, just accounting functions? And then
sales/manufacturing/operations has to adopt to the new, improved system?

I seem to remember there is a link into ADO for CR ... maybe you could link

XML might be another possible methodology - but I don't have a copy of CR to

Anyone got any inside information on these features in CR?
