I spoke to Jackie Burhans at Rocket about the issues raised in this list on behalf of the user group and she is putting a team onto looking at how to improve the documentation and installation process for DataVu. This is a product U2 users want to persevere with as it will make U2 stronger in the market and reduce the potential for competitor products pushing U2 out of a site.

Re: [U2] DataVu Query [ad]
I see a lot of talk about this CONVERT.SQL command. I have never used it. So out of curiosity I'll ask a couple of noob questions... I saw a demo on ODBC for Universe, and the person suggested setting up a new account and creating clean dictionaries for existing files. (by using F pointers). I realize ODBC is a whole other bag of nuts entirely. Could you do this with DataVu, or does that CONVERT.SQL command make changes to the hash file itself, or does it just add dictionaries for SQL? (I have never used SQL in Universe - never saw the point really I guess). On Wed, Sep 7, 2011 at 3:09 AM, Mecki Foerthmann wrote: > I haven't tried the slashes.

Uh yeah. Ok here's one. Instead of "error BD10456342!!.blah gobbly gook" maybe something a human can understand :) Having, as I have, a brilliant mind, it only took me five minutes or so to figure out that possibly, it can't figure out what files are in my account because it's seeing a menu pop up when it logs in as me, on login, and has no idea what to do with THAT, so it barfs all over my backseat. Very rude! Instead of an actual application account, I changed it to point at UV which has no menu and voila up comes the list of files.

Aiui, ODBC (on UV at least) is no longer a native data access technology, but it sits on top of OleDB. So if you can avoid ODBC you should. I'm also pretty sure I've accessed UV data files, using SQL, without ODBC-ising them. The results have been a bit strange on occasion, thanks to unclean dictionaries, but it's been a lot easier than getting ODBC to work. If DataVue accesses the database using the same technique, it would be far better than ODBC.

Re: [U2] DataVu Query [ad]
Okay, so once you download DV Query there is a quick start guide that will tell you what you need to do. You need to run CONVERT.SQL on your files so that it has access to them, but you don't need to worry about creating the schemas with VSG or using HS.ADMIN like you would otherwise. Actually, there is a way to just use UPDATE.SQL.PRIVILEGES to get around this (https://u2tc.rocketsoftware.com/documentation/1410030.asp), although we recommend you do the CONVERT.SQL way. If you are running older versions of U2 you may need to update XTOOLSUB, which is also a Tech note on TechConnect. -Original Message- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Steve Romanow Sent: Friday, September 02, 2011 11:14 AM To: U2 Users List Subject: Re: [U2] DataVu Query [ad] On Fri, Sep 2, 2011 at 1:04 PM, Bill Haskett wrote: > Steve: > > Really?

Re: [U2] DataVu Query [ad]
I loaded to the Pickwiki, code which will output the first 10 VOC entries as an HTML table and then launch it with Accuterm into whatever browser you have. I don't know anything about FTWIZ, looks like a file transfer tool, doesn't seem closely related to me. You can use the core concepts of my code to also create csv or tab delimited files which should open in Excel as well btw. You can also add the code snippets or a subroutine to any report you have to make it pop up in Excel or as an HTML table. -Original Message- From: John Thompson To: U2 Users List Sent: Fri, Sep 2, 2011 9:55 am Subject: Re: [U2] DataVu Query [ad] Yes... but, Accuterm FTWIZ can be quite slow when pulling a lot of data.

Re: [U2] DataVu Query [ad]
Yes... but, Accuterm FTWIZ can be quite slow when pulling a lot of data. Although, I have not had much time to mess with the New Version of Accuterm 7, so it may have improved. Also the last time I checked, its difficult for FTWIZ to get data from multiple files, unless you want to spend your life doing translates. My understanding was that the ODBC for Universe would actually normalize the data for you if you had a new set of clean dictionaries setup properly in a clean account. Maybe this is what I should do for the Accuterm stuff too Like I said, its on the project list, but, I have not got that far in the heap yet... Any advice appreciated.

Re: [U2] U2 DataVu Query
Thanks for the response, Michael. The VOC entry for UD.ACCOUNT, in the data account chosen in the connection setup, is being overwritten. Prior to making the connection the VOC entry for UD.ACCOUNT is as follows: 001: F 002: c:\program files\ibm\ud71\sys\UD.ACCOUNT 003: c:\program files\ibm\ud71\sys\D_UD.ACCOUNT After selecting the the data account the VOC entry for UD.ACCOUNT is changed to: 001: F 002: ..\sys\UD.ACCOUNT 003: ..\sys\D_UD.ACCOUNT (the path for the data account is e:\data account name) I think U2 DataVu Query should not be overwriting the path to UD.ACCOUNT in the data account. Comments would be appreciated. Bruce W.

Re: [U2] U2 DataVu Query
You need to populate that UD.ACCOUNT with a record for that UD.ACCOUNT. You can either manually create it or use UniAdmin to update an already created account. You may also need to fill in the description field.

Re: [U2] U2 DataVu Query
Thanks Doug, but actually the file UD.ACCOUNT in the sys account exists and is not missing. The VOC entry of UD.ACCOUNT in the account I'm trying to query (with U2 DataVu Query) seems to be changing after trying to display files via the Create New U2 Query. The VOC entry prior to trying to display files via the Create New U2 Query: 001: F 002: c:\program files\ibm\ud71\sys\UD.ACCOUNT 003: c:\program files\ibm\ud71\sys\D_UD.ACCOUNT The VOC entry after trying to display files via the Create New U2 Query: 001: F 002: ..\sys\UD.ACCOUNT 003: ..\sys\D_UD.ACCOUNT The account I'm trying to query is actually on an alternate drive (e:\). Does anyone know if this is the problem, or a solution to resolve tis problem? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Bruce W.
