Re: [U2] Illegal use of the file, select, cursor, BCI, Socket, HTTP, XML, SCTX , MQS, SOAP or database variable.
Hi back, Here's what I usually do. I create a file record in the voc pointing to that directory and give it D_BP as a dictionary. If that VOC record is named TEMP.FILE; I can then open it in a program and read TEMP.FILE1 as a record from that file. Then every flat file record is a field in your U2 record. Fixed length you have to count, space or other delimiter I use the FIELD within a FOR/NEXT. Dale On 05/07/2013 01:37 AM, Sathya wrote: Hi all,..

Re: [U2] Help needed..
Hi, Personally, I would use OPENSEQ and READSEQ. Each READSEQ would read the next field in the record. The file needs to be a type 1 or type 19 for OPENSEQ. An example of this is: OPENSEQ FILE.NAME2, KEY.TXT TO SOURCE.FN ELSE STOP 'Unable to open ':KEY.TXT LOOP READSEQ ROW FROM SOURCE.FN ELSE EXIT ROW=CONVERT(CHAR(9),ATFM,ROW) WRITE ROW TO F.XXX,KEY REPEAT If the file isn't a type 1 or 19 then use the REMOVE function on the internal array. It is very fast. An example is: READ TXT.REC FROM F., KEY.TXT TXT.REC=TXT.REC LOOP REMOVE ROW FROM TXT.REC SETTING POS UNTIL ROW='' AND POS=0 ROW=CONVERT(CHAR(9),ATFM,ROW) WRITE ROW TO F.XXX,KEY REPEAT If you need to reprocess the array then add TXT.REC=TXT.REC and start the process again. The reason is that assigning the array to itself will reset the internal pointer REMOVE uses to keep track of where it is. One caveat, REMOVE goes to the next delimiter (field, value, subvalue or text mark) so you need to know the data you are working with.

Re: [U2] Help needed..
Note that if the file was built in Windows, it may have a CR:LF combination at the end of each line. Reading it in, PICK will cleanly distinguish one as a line delimiter, but you will still have the extra (unwanted) character at the end of ROW. I forget which one is which, but any time you read in a row from a TXT file, you will want to convert the unwanted character (I believe it is a CHAR(13)).

It is very fast. An example is: READ TXT.REC FROM F., KEY.TXT TXT.REC=TXT.REC LOOP REMOVE ROW FROM TXT.REC SETTING POS UNTIL ROW='' AND POS=0 ROW=CONVERT(CHAR(9),ATFM,ROW) WRITE ROW TO F.XXX,KEY REPEAT If you need to reprocess the array then add TXT.REC=TXT.REC and start the process again. The reason is that assigning the array to itself will reset the internal pointer REMOVE uses to keep track of where it is. One caveat, REMOVE goes to the next delimiter (field, value, subvalue or text mark) so you need to know the data you are working with.

Use OCONV and ICONV and the MD (Move Decimal) type. Ex.

Dont throw away those flat screens when they die. I fixed one today, 30 minutes and 5 capacitors on the output power supply. They seem to be made with under rated caps. So far since last year i've fixed 9 flat screen monitors, all capacitors in the output power supply. I've change the caps but up'd the rated voltage on each so if it 470uf 10v, i put in a 470uf at 25v. Easier than fixing tube monitors, takes about 30 minutes.

Re: [U2] FYI off topic
thanks for the heads up! although i make recreations of vintage guitar tube amplifiers it never occurred to me to pop open a monitor and look for bad caps the number one problem with vintage tube amps are the electrolytic caps in the power filter section. the electrolyte drys up (or oozes out) and starts leaking DC into the AC section of the circuit. i have one out in my shop right now that i'm gonna open up tonight!

They seem to be made with under rated caps. So far since last year i've fixed 9 flat screen monitors, all capacitors in the output power supply. I've change the caps but up'd the rated voltage on each so if it 470uf 10v, i put in a 470uf at 25v. Easier than fixing tube monitors, takes about 30 minutes. Nice side job in the future, everyone will have a couple.

The story goes that a few years ago, a cap provider in China got their mix wrong for the dielectric, and tens of thousands (maybe more) of these caps got put in all kinds of devices. They didn't fail immediately, but a well after the warranty had run out. On Tue, 7 May 2013, Robert Frailey wrote: Dont throw away those flat screens when they die.

Re: [U2] Manage $ values
Bill, I've had a little UniData experience, but nowdays I'm all UniVerse; I'm not sure what happens but hopefully I'd catch it before it went to homeland security. Thanks for the tip.
