Re: [U2] How to copy only @ID from one file to anothers
George, We are using a proprietary version of Unidata and it appears that I can setup a Secondary Pointer. Once setup this works like a charm. Thanks for steering me in the right direction.

The only thing I can think of would be to setup a trigger on the parent file, That computes the ID that will be used in the child file and if it doesn't exist Create in the child file. This way, the parent file will push the @ID into the child file, whereas if you Want to pull the @ID from the parent file, maybe setup a PHANTOM that runs every Minute or so, but that won't guarantee that a record could be added to the parent File while the PHANTOM is sleeping between runs.

Aah, I see. I'll need to check our UDT.OPTIONS. I think that I've
managed to get this one worked out by creating a DICT entry without
formating. This gave me the list that I need. In that we are migrating
more and more data to SQL Server which really chokes on a bad date I'll
need to get better at flushing these out.

That was the point. What happens is an externally formatted date isn't
OCONV'd, if the dbms is configured to return an empty string for a bad
conversion. I've got this set up on our systems like this. So, when I
run the following code:
2 Dev (0)- BPTEST CRT 'OConverted Date--: ' : OCONV('01/29/13', 'D') ;
END
Compiling Unibasic: SAVEDLISTS\BpTest_547690521 in mode 'p'.
compilation finished
OConverted Date--:
...I get what you're looking for, an empty string for dates filed in
external format. In UniData I need UDT.OPTIONS 56 ON.

Re: [U2] Unwanted Duplicated
John, Thanks for the response. I on UniData. I was thinking that perhaps this was the result of a UDT.OPTION setting... Oh! I think I've just come across the answer - please see below: When performing a SELECT statement that employs the SAVING UNIQUE keyword against a multi-valued field - the resulting list will contain two valuemarks on each line with a number in between after the saved value. An example is useful to demonstrate: :SELECT STUDENT.TERMS SAVING UNIQUE STTR.STUDENT.ACAD.CRED SAMPLE 100 SAVE.LIST LIST.TEST :AE SAVEDLISTS LIST.TEST000 Top of LIST.TEST000 in SAVEDLISTS, 345 lines, 4,093 characters. 001: ý1ý1 002: 1003926ý1ý1 003: 1003927ý2ý1 004: 1003928ý3ý1 005: 1024941ý1ý1 006: 1024942ý2ý1 007: 1024943ý3ý1 008: 1036527ý1ý1 009: 1036528ý2ý1 010: 1036529ý3ý1 The resulting list above causes issues with the LIST ALGERBRA command... These seemingly extraneous valuemarks and numbers are actually the normal behavior of UniData when using the SAVING UNIQUE keyword on a multi-valued field (which is the case with STTR.STUDENT.ACAD.CRED). The easiest way to get rid of the value marks and numbers that are added to each line in the savedlist after using the SAVING UNIQUE on a multi-valued field is to perform a subsequent select. In this situation the STTR.STUDENT.ACAD.CRED field is a multi-valued pointer to the STUDENT.ACAD.CRED file... with an active list (from the savedlist conaining the valuemarks or directly after the SAVING UNIQUE query) select again against the STUDENT.ACAD.CRED file. This will result in the same list of IDs and will not contain the valuemarks or numbers as seen after the SAVING UNIQUE query. Here are a couple examples that will produce the desired list in a savedlist record named GOOD.LIST: If you already have the list containing the valuemarks, etc... activate that list and select against the STUDENT.ACAD.CRED file: :SELECT STUDENT.TERMS SAVING UNIQUE STTR.STUDENT.ACAD.CRED SAMPLE 100 147 records selected to list 0. SAVE.LIST RAW.LIST 147 key(s) saved to 1 record(s). :GET.LIST RAW.LIST 147 records retrieved to list 0. SELECT STUDENT.ACAD.CRED 146 records selected to list 0. The following record ids do not exist: SAVE.LIST GOOD.LIST 146 key(s) saved to 1 record(s). : If you perform a query using the SAVING UNIQUE keyword against a multi-valued field, you can execute the second query immediately: :SELECT STUDENT.TERMS SAVING UNIQUE STTR.STUDENT.ACAD.CRED SAMPLE 100 147 records selected to list 0. SELECT STUDENT.ACAD.CRED 146 records selected to list 0. The following record ids do not exist: SAVE.LIST GOOD.LIST 146 key(s) saved to 1 record(s). : If the list produced from the SAVING UNIQUE query does not produce a list of IDs for another file... then it will be necessary to remove the extra value marks and numbers manually.

Re: [U2] Using 'MATCH'
Mechi, I am creating an extract for export to a third party vendor. This requires that I convert a multi-valued field to a single (comma delimited) value. The thought was instead of converting from comma to @VM and then back to comma that we might save the processor a bit of work by keeping is simple and just using COUNT against the comma delimited value. Initially I thought that I might go upstream and use LOCATE while we were still dealing with a multi-valued field, there are subroutines in place that are considering other criteria...

I realize that I'll need to get this file back into position (DATA/DATA_X) but am uncertain how to do this and not wind up with another file that I can't read. I created this file using the file creation tool provided and am unable to COPY FROM DICT A26.CHECKS.RECON TO DICT A26.CHECK.RECON ALL. I can to a straight COPY FROM A26.CHECKS.RECON TO A26.CHECK.RECON ALL - but this results in an unusable file. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Hi guys, Quick question: I've got a custom Unidata file that my system does not recognize. The file is a HASH Type 0 - which should be compatible with the system... Any suggestions what I might try to get the system to recognize this file or to do a CREATE.FILE and COPY and end up with a recognizable file? As always - Thanks!

Re: [U2] Selecting a List
Hi All,
Again, I need a little help.
The following PROCEDURE LINE works just fine. In this case I'm just
inserting the variable V.CALENDAR.YEAR to complete my file suite and I am
going after 2 alphanumeric records ('P2021422' 'P2083158').
PROCEDURE LINE SELECT GLA.:V.CALENDAR.YEAR: WITH GLA.REF.NO =
'P2021422' 'P2083158'
The problem arises when I attempt to select from a LIST (below)
PROCEDURE LINE SELECT GLA.:V.CALENDAR.YEAR: WITH GLA.REF.NO = :
VL.JS.LIST.VAR1
Of course the system does not like the Value Marker so I need to get rid
of it...
VL.JS.LIST.VAR1 = ':CONVERT (@VM,' ',VL.JS.LIST.VAR1):'
The hope here is to replace @VM with ' ' and then place the ' at each
end... but CONVERT will only switch one for one - one @VM for a single
single quote (') which results in a quote mismatch.
Any suggestions?
Greg

Guys,
As always a number of great options! I was able to throw in SWAP with the
least effort and it's working great!
Thanks again,

I'm assuming this is in a basic program and you want to use CHANGE
instead of CONVERT. In Unidata, anyway.

Yes. I think you need the ?REPLACE? function. There is a function that
replaces one string with another. It might be EREPLACE instead.
Anyways. Read the BASIC manual - it is there.
Cheers,
Wol

Re: [U2] Selecting a List
Jeff,
Thanks for the info on EREPLACE! It looks like this would allow me to
replace a specified number of the substrings - something I've been
wrestling with on another assignment...
Thanks again,
Greg

EREPLACE function?
SYNTAX
EREPLACE (expression, substring, replacement
[,occurrence
[,begin]]
)
DESCRIPTION
Use the EREPLACE function to replace substring in
expression
with another substring. If you do not specify occurrence,
each
occurrence of substring is
replaced.
occurrence specifies the number of occurrences of substring
to
replace. To replace all occurrences, specify occurrence as
a
number less than 1.
Glorfield, Gordon wrote:
What about SWAP?
SWAP str.expr1 WITH str.expr2 IN var
The UniBasic SWAP command replaces all occurrences of one substring with
a second substring. The search string does not have to be the same length
as the replacement string. SWAP supports mulitbyte languages.

Re: [U2] Uniquery
U2 Users! I am trying to pass in arguments into a UniQuery form using JSPARAMS. This works fine when I working with a SELECT LIST: V.JS.VAR1 = Smith PROCEDURE LINE SELECT PERSON WITH LAST.NAME EQ :V.JS.VAR1 But when I try to pass this into a literal statement such as a HEADER - things go haywire (process goes into a loop) X.LIST.STMT:= \HEADER AR Invoices with customer last name :V.JS.VAR1: and customer first name John.\ Does anyone have any clues as to what I should be looking for - UDT.OPTIONS, HEADING settings? Also, when I pass in a V.JS.DATE.VAR to the HEADER I get the internal date regardless how I try to format it. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
