[U2] .Net Components
Hi all, What .Net components (c#) are being used by Unidata developers since we now have the .Net connectivity? We use Infragistics and Xceed at work for use with MS SQL.

[U2] Replication on UniVerse
Does UniVerse support Replication like UniData does? Has anyone used the UniVerse Replication with success or are there 'warnings' attached? Thanks for any thoughts... David --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
Re: [U2] Replication on UniVerse
Yes, UV have a replication method and it works very good. See UV Docs Admin Chapter 13 Just two advices, if you run the uv release below 10.1.7 you must use Uniadmin GUI to manage replication : - be carefull about the release of uniadmin and check the correct release for your level of uv - run a CLEAN.ACCOUNT before connect uniadmin to your account. Under 10.1.7 and upper you can manage replication via TCL commands. Regards. Manu Fernandes Infodata S.`r.l.

Re: [U2] .Net Components
I've found that since the UniObjects.Net library does not create native .Net data structures (datatables, datasets, etc), I have to create them myself. So, to make use of things like Component One's flex grid, I build a datatable from the UniVerse system and feed the datatable into the ComponentOne component. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

[U2] Tax calculating routine
Hi: Does anyone have access to or knowledge of a routine for calculating sales tax within the 48 states and the Provincial Sales / GST tax for Canada? We have looked at Vertex and while it is very powerful it is very expensive. We would like one that is more reasonably priced. We do not need the tax form preparation or record keeping modules. We are a manufacture with facilities in OK, TX, NV and ON in Canada. We are running UniVerse 10.1.7 on AIX 5.2.5. This is a very old legacy system originally created in the mid eighties and bruised and abused every since. Thanks for any help in advance.

Not 100% managed code, no connection pooling, missing some features, really not a big deal - but free. Someone please correct me if this perception is incorrect, I haven't looked that deeply into this. - PDP.NET : First kid on the block, great software, Microsoft certified. Faces some obstacles like price/TCO, doesn't have everything a relational data provider has but for Pick people it's generally good enough, U2 sites may be a little iffy about doing business with Raining Data. Supports U2 and D3 only. - mv.NET : Recent contender, great software, ongoing intense development, better price than PDP.NET, not as complicated as PDP but same-to-more features. Supports all MV products, even some legacy platforms. All three can be used with a Unidata PE environment at home. However there is not yet a free/home use version of the commercial offerings. All three can be used from C#, VB.NET, or other .NET languages. (COBOL or FORTRAN access to U2 anyone?) I'll be happy to share any info I can. In case there is a question of bias, I don't particularly care what products people use to connect to their MV DBMS.

RE: [U2] Tax calculating routine
Tom, I know what you mean about the expense of Vertex - used it for 5 years on previous job . Do not know if this will help but we use CCH for the tax tables and they are quite reasonable. The data is provided to you via text files (monthly). You could import them into UniVerse and write pick code to calculate your tax. Another way (this is the way we do it here) is to move the data into a SQL table and use some call mechanism (api,odbc,text file ??) to get the tax. We did it the second way because we are moving away from pick (mvBase). I guess it depends on where you are headed. If you have questions feel free to call.

RE: [U2] [UV] To Cron or Not To Cron?
Two nations, divided by a single language...(or maybe it's just my age) UV doesn't have a scheduler as such, but there's any number of ways to implement one - at the simplest level, Phantom a process to sleep till 3 am, do something and Phantom itself again. You could try using cron to do a ps -ef | grep uv or PORT.STATUS every [nn secs] between midnight and 6 am to see what changes. Pretty simplistic approach which will work well if you're expecting the system to be sound asleep, less well if they kick off a couple of hundred batch jobs during that time. In general though, whatever process is doing the horking is either running (but sleeping) at 23:00, or being kicked off by another process that is. If you've eliminated cron have a look at whatever else is running around 23:00, especially if it involves uv - can you explain what each is doing ? Perhaps post the output from ps -ef at 23:00 here ( maybe even add a technical definition of horking for the more backward nations between you and continental Europe) -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Kevin King Sent: 23 May 2005 20:41 To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] [UV] To Cron or Not To Cron?

We, also, have a UV scheduler that isn't native to UV. Another thing you might check for is if you have some kind of day-end process that is kicked off manually. We have a day and night shift and when the night shift is done, they kick-off a day end posting process that runs for a number of hours, and hopefully is done by the time Day shift comes in. In our case, it does a number of once-a-day processes, but not as phantoms.

RE: [U2] Tax calculating routine
The tax calculations themselves are a bit challenging, but not exactly rocket science. I've done tax calculations for US, Canada, and at least a dozen other countries, and can tell you this: There are two issues that make Vertex a valuable solution: 1) Calculation Updates: Governmental authorities can change their tax calculation methods at will and unless you're on the notify list for every taxing authority in North America, you'll be out of compliance almost all the time. 2) Data Updates: Tax rates change more frequently than tax calculation methods, but the same rules apply. Unless you're on the notify list, you'll be out of compliance. These are the two things that a product like Vertex offers that you will find difficult to get anywhere else. So it comes down to how compliant you want to be. If mostly compliant is an option, then you certainly could roll your own. -Kevin [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.PrecisOnline.com -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of tom Sent: Monday, May 23, 2005 2:59 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] Tax calculating routine Hi: Does anyone have access to or knowledge of a routine for calculating sales tax within the 48 states and the Provincial Sales / GST tax for Canada?

[U2] UV PE for Windows
I was just wondering if anyone knows whether the latest version of UV PE for Windows on the IBM website includes UVADMIN. I would like to download a copy onto my own computer to test some software I am working on for a client, but I need to create several different UV accounts in the process, if it doesn't come with UVADMIN, then how else do I do that ???

RE: [U2] Tax calculating routine
Calculation updates - yes This exapmle probably doesnt affect your type of business. In Mass (and maybe Rhode Island this year) there ia a tax free day in August. Where you can purchase 'some' items completely free of tax. So, if you need a big screen tv this is the time to buy, but not a boat or a car - and ONLY if it is paid in full - lots of other rules. I wonder if that is built into vertex ?

I've done tax calculations for US, Canada, and at least a dozen other countries, and can tell you this: There are two issues that make Vertex a valuable solution: 1) Calculation Updates: Governmental authorities can change their tax calculation methods at will and unless you're on the notify list for every taxing authority in North America, you'll be out of compliance almost all the time. 2) Data Updates: Tax rates change more frequently than tax calculation methods, but the same rules apply. Unless you're on the notify list, you'll be out of compliance. These are the two things that a product like Vertex offers that you will find difficult to get anywhere else. So it comes down to how compliant you want to be. If mostly compliant is an option, then you certainly could roll your own. -Kevin [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.PrecisOnline.com -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of tom Sent: Monday, May 23, 2005 2:59 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] Tax calculating routine Hi: Does anyone have access to or knowledge of a routine for calculating sales tax within the 48 states and the Provincial Sales / GST tax for Canada? We have looked at Vertex and while it is very powerful it is very expensive. We would like one that is more reasonably priced. We do not need the tax form preparation or record keeping modules. We are a manufacture with facilities in OK, TX, NV and ON in Canada. We are running UniVerse 10.1.7 on AIX 5.2.5. This is a very old legacy system originally created in the mid eighties and bruised and abused every since. Thanks for any help in advance.

Re: [U2] [UV] To Cron or Not To Cron?
Backup job? Some batch processing happening that someone forgot to stop if/when things changed? Sending or recieving data from another system source? Listening for incoming data via some process from some other system and maybe that other system itself goes down for backups or maintenance or some such thing? Is there email on this system?Midnight to 4 or 5 AM is Prime Spammer Time. Or Hacker time. Got all your security and functionality updates applied? Oops. LINUX. You could download and install a system wide performance monitoring product then trace all processes on the system and see what process does exactly what, with what resourcesand when. www.deltek.us Oops. LINUX. Setup your own cron job that wakes up every 10 or 15 minutes, captures varioss system snaps shots (ps -ef $OUTPUT.txt type of thing) and see what processes are doing during those hours. Sasser type viruses, if on any client PC in the network, can send out a ton of network jibberish trying to find any client or server it can hack its way into.

You can create accounts on Windows just like on Unix - create a directory and run the uv command while attached to the directory, it will prompt asking whether to create a new account and which flavour you require. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, 24 May 2005 7:39 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] UV PE for Windows I was just wondering if anyone knows whether the latest version of UV PE for Windows on the IBM website includes UVADMIN.
