Re: [U2] [UV] is there an equivalent to the UD ALL UniQuery keyword?
Yes I know that's why I asked if it would do. It was by no means clear if formatting and headings were required... BTW what does ud LIST ... ALL do when there are multiple dict entries for the same field? Does it list all of them and if not - how does it select wich one to use ? --mats Scott Ballinger wrote: Unfortunately, LIST-ITEM is just a raw record dump and does not display field names (just numbers) and does not apply the appropriate conversions for numbers, dates, times, etc. I like letting REVISE build the @REVISE item- why not call it from a trigger whenever the dict is updated? Or you could probably make an I-type VOC item called ALL or @ALL that parsed the dict and displayed all the fields in a pretty way- but that's still a lot of work to re-create something that UD already does for you. /Scott Ballinger Pareto Corporation Edmonds WA USA 206 713 6006 -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mats Carlid Sent: Friday, December 02, 2005 12:43 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] [UV] is there an equivalent to the UD ALL UniQuery keyword?

Or move LIST to VOCLIB, setup LIST as an R type in the VOC pointing to VOCLIB and use F4 in the R VOC entry to invoke a remote subroutine that can then modify the sentence.

Would LIST.ITEM be an answer ? At least it lists all the fields... -- mats --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

Unfortunately, LIST-ITEM is just a raw record dump and does not display field names (just numbers) and does not apply the appropriate conversions for numbers, dates, times, etc. I like letting REVISE build the @REVISE item- why not call it from a trigger whenever the dict is updated?
