RE: [U2] CREATE.FILE one liner and UVSH.EXE
Hi Andy Yes I got your post, but didn't reply as I had only an inkling of what possible direction you could choose. I toddled off to the manuals, and as yet haven't found anything of value, so ... here's my theory: why can't you use the mkdbfile executable in UV\bin? Or it's pal create.file? Somewhere I used it to create files in another account, and found the how-to in the archives... however today I can't even find the archive... :) What I do remember is that I assembled the command, then executed it from within Basic - if this is correct you should be able to access it from outside of basic? --- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

Hello, I am currently writing an application in VB.Net that communicates with Universe servers via UVSH.EXE (can't use Uniobjects as not all our users install them or allows them) I have hit a problem where I am trying to create a file via UVSH.EXE as it appears I am limited to one line commands, unless anyone knows differently? The problem is that I am trying to create a type 19 file and although the help file on Universe states I can do this with one line, Universe itself doesn't seem to alllow it. In the help file it says the following: CREATE.FILE [DICT | DATA] [filename [, datafile]] [type] [modulo] [separation] [parameter [value]...] [description] Am I incorrect in understanding the TYPE option to be the file type? For an example to this I am typing (following the above) CREATE.FILE TESTFILE 19 1 3 which I would expect to create me a type 19 file, but it creates a type 18 file! Is there something I am doing wrong here or is the help file incorrect? I have tried this on Universe 10.0.4 and 10.1.0 and both versions seem to act the same.

Piers, This still requires the modulo and seperation to be entered seperately in the same way that it would require the file type to be entered seperately if I entered just the modulo and seperation which is the problem I am trying to avoid as I am using UVSH.EXE Mike Les, Thanks, both your answers worked! IBMs documentation is misleading with this, but thanks for your help all. -Original Message- From: Piers Angliss [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 07 July 2004 13:09 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [U2] CREATE.FILE one liner and UVSH.EXE Re Creating Type 19 files, have you tried CREATE.FILE TESTFILE 19 without the modulo and separation ?

I apologise about the disclaimer at the start of my email, I have complained about this in the past to our system administrator, but he's adament that it stays.

Sorry everyone, but there's not much I can do about it and I hate it as much as you do. I have suggested a link in the email somewhere to our disclaimer or even putting the disclaimer at the end of the email if it really must be there.
