For point 2 we have been consuming many different webservices within unidata for many years - there are two main ways to do it, either entirely within u2 or partly within and partly outside. It depends on circumstances as to which is the most appropriate - it is in effect pretty easy either way.

While I agree that the user typing the commands may find the results unexpected, if you think about how the TCL commands are implemented, it actually makes sense. If I type: ED FOO BAR The ED command has been given an item-id so it attempts to read it. If I type: ED FOO it checks if there's a

I'm not sure about that. This, I believe, has always been the case. I've always had problems worrying about whether the 1st select returned anything; that's why I always do a SYSTEM(11) test after the initial select, and rarely use the trick of loading TCL commands into an array to execute

Absolutely. SELECT on a SELECT will prune the list if there is an active select and matching criteria. What should NOT happen is zero records on the second SELECT if you know the record is present - irrelevant of syntax -Original Message- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org

George - it's not so much the with - I think it's more the =. It's a case of it doing precisely what you ask as opposed to what you are thinking you are doing. The = is creates selection criteria otherwise it considers whatever follows as a record ID and ignores the outstanding select list. Bill

Hey Guys, Have a client who has been on Eclipse since 2000. They are sick to death with the nickle and dime (read eye gouge) tactics by Activant and want out. Do you think Open Bravo or any of the other Open source ERP products could replace it. Obviously with a lot of customization.

Also ask whether your client owns the source code. If not, things get trickier when dealing with Activant/Epicor. Fortunately, we did own our own source code, so there wasn't much they could do, when we decided to move away from them. On Thu, Jul 7, 2011 at 2:20 PM, John Thompson
