[U2] Totaling an Oconv'd DICT column

2008-02-05 Thread Baker Hughes
Hey, UV 10.2 / PIOPEN Flavor I'm trying to resolve an erratic issue with totaling on some reports, where it runs the column out to 9 decimals. It only happens when we apply the 'MD2' conversion with an OCONV, rather than using the Conv field in the DICT item. And, it does not happen

Jerry, Thanks for that thought, but I've already tried it without the CONV in D10. I've removed it temporarily to demonstrate how it all looks, working on that hunch [ but, alas...]. LIST CRJ TOTAL D10 TOTAL D10.RAW TOTAL D10.OCONV TOTAL AR.TOT.USD.FRGN TOTAL D26 ID.SUP DET.SUP 15:26:35

Ray, That sounds interesting. I can see why you would need a new approach to Maori since the 1st step in Soundex is to collapse or remove the vowels altogether. In a vowel heavy language this would be self defeating. Is there a degree of intonation required to speak Maori? something else
