My dumb question for the day (just cant remember how to... and the manual's
example is too simplistic...)
How do I programmatically get an index value out,
eg
I have a STOCK file, and a REPAIRS file. Whoever designed this needs their
head read, but the repairs file only has the stock code as a
I would use the SAVING clause on a select of the repairs file to build a list
of stock id's then use a merge list command to see what stock ids do not have a
repairs record.

SELECT REPAIR SAVING UNIQUE STOCK.ID
Providing the the id to the STOCK file is in a field called STOCK.ID.

Two more ways to do this:
1/ you can use BASIC but it's a slight pig..
The SelectIndex statement selects keys from an index. But it generates a
select list, so you need to be careful about segregating these e.g. if
calling from a SUBR() in an Idescriptor.
2/ a way I'm clearly not
I recently put together a Tech Tip for a monthly news Letter about the Merge
List process. That might help with your situation, take a look.

Thanks! This is by far the easiest, and it works!

There is no function like the T correlative to translate to an indexed file
from a dict item, so you will need to do in BASIC as an I-type. The command
is BSCAN, e,g.
BSCAN BVAL,ID.LIST FROM FV,ID USING FIELDNAME ELSE BVAL =
ID.LIST contains an AM delimited list of keys to records in file FV
Dennis:
I would handle it with something like the following...
-Bill
*
equate true to 1, false to 0
open 'STOCK' to F.Stockelse null
open 'REPAIRS' to F.Repairs else null
clearselect ALL
execute SELECT REPAIRS
Dennis,
Create a subr/function routine to open the REPAIRS file, use BSCAN to find
the required records (using the passed STOCK code) and then DCOUNT the BSCAN
result. You can then return this value.
Create an ITYPE dictionary field (in STOCK file) which calls this routine,
passing the required
Keep it simple! In a program you can use SELECTINDEX and from a command
line use SELECT with the SAVING UNIQUE keywords.

Hi,
I'll use Universe's XDOM functions and I don't understand how to work
with multiple xml nodes within a xPath result.
Into XDOMLocate I can use xPath like /bookstore/book[price50.00]' ;
it return a nodehandle to the first node which is ok with condition but
when I have many nodes I don't
Ah...
If that's what you want, then in BASIC
SELECTINDEX STOCK.ID FROM F.REPAIR
Should have exactly the same effect (and save the overhead of an EXECUTE). The
only difference is the resulting select list may not be sorted (although I
think it is).
If you then want to find what records are
13 matches
