RE: UCI Error

2004-02-04 Thread Hona, David S

Ah, forgot to ask what your uvodbc.config (or is called uci.config in UV
10.x?) file looks like on the client side (your Oracle server).

On one of our client servers the uvodbc.config has this section at the end
of the file... these parameters are documented in the UCI manual
(somewhere).

[ADMIN] Why multiple digests, and a lecture on Netetiquette

2004-02-04 Thread Moderator
Greetings, All.

I have received some inquiries as to why the new list server will 
sometimes send out two digests in one day.

The digest normally is generated at 23:55 PST (USA). However, sometimes 
the volume of the postings is such that the digest can get huge. When 
that happens, not only does it take a long time to send them all, but 
some people do not get them; their mail service limits the size of 
incoming messages. So I have a threshold of 300KB set. During the day, 
if that is reached, it will kick off a digest at that point in addition 
to the one that goes out at night.

Notice that I said volume of the posts, not number of posts. What 
causes this volume in most cases? OVER-QUOTING. When you hit Reply, add 
a couple of lines at the top of the message, and do not bother to delete 
all but the most relevant lines of the most recent message, you 
contribute to the problem. There is no reason to be constantly quoting 
the entire thread. Even worse is the quoting and re-quoting of all of 
the footer garbage that HR departments tack on to email these days. (Or 
that list servers like this one add for identification, to be fair.)

The general (very general) guideline of netiquette is that you should 
quote only about four lines of the most recent post for each point to 
which you are responding. If you are replying to several points, do not 
top-post. Quote four or five lines, add your point, quote some more, add 
your point, etc. (There are many lists where you will get yelled at by 
the Moderator, as I found out the hard way, for even top-posting at all. 
This list is not one of those. :-)

'Nuff said.

RE: Document scan and retrieval (looking for software)

2004-02-04 Thread Anthony Youngman
Title: RE: Document scan and retrieval (looking for software)



To nitpick - but it catches out a LOT of people - SAMBA 
is NOT NOT NOT the appropriate software here. It will NOT do what you 
claim.

Samba allows Windows boxes to access a unix server (and 
allows that server to join a Windows domain).

If you want to use a unix *client* to access a Windows 
server, you need smbmount and friends, which are not not not samba. If you want 
to what you suggest, using samba, you need to get the pcs to save directly into 
a nix directory which samba has exported to the network, rather than getting a 
nix box to monitor a windows directory.

Wol

Could 
also have the PC that is scanning save to a specific 
directory.
then 
have a program monitor that directory for new entries, read them, encode them 
and save them
 somehow then the saved filename would have be linked into 
the system.

I'm 
just using pcpaint as an example of a program that might be able to read 
directly from a scanner
and 
save in .jpg/.bmp format.

If 
volume is high, and a number of scanners are being used, then have one central 
PC share it's directory
and 
each scanner saves to that directory. Since the directory is shared, you could 
even have unix system
running 
SAMBA monitor the directory (thus bringing unix into the picture). The only drawback to having
unix in 
the setup is that it is more difficult to have unix bring up IE on a PC. But 
that could be gotten around
if you 
run a lpr/lpd daemon on the PC which can then take a print job and pass it to a 
program (ie. RPM
www.brooksnet.com). or use a PC with rsh 
daemon that would allow the unix system to send the launch
command 
to the PC. or even a small custom PERL socketed program on the PC which could 
listen for
a 
command and launch IE.

Depending on the $$ wanted to be spent.

I don't 
think a having the image be a type 1/19 file would be good, unless it's base64 
or mimeencoded, as you could
have 
char(255)'s imbedded in the image.

RE: Help wanted creating an efficient SELECT statement

2004-02-04 Thread Brian Leach



You can get part way there through SQL, though you cannot 
(sadly) capture an SQL SELECT to a select list if it contains a GROUP BY 
clause.

So here is a kind of work-around using a scrudgy bit of a 
program. 
I'm sure someone can come up with something better, but 
this is what first came to mind :-) 

1. Create dict items for ID (@ID right justified) 
andMAIN (@ID[".",1,1]).
2. In a program:

 TCL = "SELECT MAX(ID) FROM yourfile GROUP BY 
MAIN COL.SUP COUNT.SUP;"
 Execute TCL, OUT.  
Text
 Convert " " To "" In Text ;* remove leading 
spaces
 Text = [EMAIL PROTECTED], 3, DCount(Text,@FM)-3] ;* 
remove leading and trailing blank lines
 Open "SAVEDLISTS" TO FL 
Then
 Write Text On FL, 
"MyList"
 End
 CHAIN "GET.LIST MyList"

Hope this helps,

RE: Help wanted creating an efficient SELECT statement

2004-02-04 Thread Anthony Youngman



This is a bit messy ...

Firstly create an i-descriptor as 
follows

0002: FIELD( @ID, ",", 1, 1); FIELD( @ID, ",", 2, 1)+1; 
TRANS( @FILENAME, @1:".":@2, 0, "X")

(I think I've got that right...)

What it's doing is adding 1 to the X bit, and doing a trans 
to see if the record exists. If I've got it right, this i-descriptor should return the next id if it exists, and null if it doesn't. So just select with 
this thing equal to null. Of course, it'll be fooled if you have a 
non-sequential X list.

Wol

Unix - Windoze Account(s) Move

2004-02-04 Thread Donald Kibbey
I'm attempting to build up an archive copy of our finance system on Windows XP 
(Professional).  The app normally runs on an HP Unix machine.  So far I've been able 
to move the files, run fnuxi on them and gain rudimentary access to the data from the 
command prompt.  What has me a bit stumped is that the application itself consists of 
several accounts full of little subroutines that don't seem to be linked in correctly. 
 Is there a magic program that will fixup things like cataloged programs when an 
account is moved from Unix to Windoze??  Or should I go through each and every account 
and fix these myself?

Thanks,

I realize the context of the original reply was a PROC, but for the sake of completeness, you can also handle it within a paragraph.  Check @SYSTEM.RETURN.CODE.

Re: UV command failing mystery

2004-02-04 Thread Glenn Herbert
The 'uv' command is basically a small front ender to the 'uvsh' executable, 
which is really the guts of universe.  The uv command does little more (for 
universe) then to check ulimit settings, increasing them when necessary, 
then issuing an execve() call to uvsh.  If you bypass 'uv' and just use 
'uvsh', does the problem still occur?

Your universe configurables seem reasonable, as well as your kernel params, 
but I do recall an issue whereby the OS would disallow exec's (and /or 
forks) due to system resource exhaustion, although it has been a while and 
I cannot recall the details.

Cached in memory is correct as well as the 
second statement will only have to process fewer records if the WITH was 
done in the first. Breaking up a SELECT statement into 2 parts may be 
advantageous, regardless of caching, if there are multiple ANDed WITH 
clauses and one or more of them involve translates. For 
example:

SSELECT HUGE.ARCHIVE.FILE WITH CUST.ZIP = 
"12345" AND WITH PERIOD = "199910"

would be faster as
SELECT HUGE.ARCHIVE.FILE WITH PERIOD = 
"199910"
then
SSELECT HUGE.ARCHIVE.FILE WITH CUST.ZIP = 
"12345"

assuming that CUST.ZIP is translated and the 
PERIOD is a local field. Note the SSELECT in the second statement as 
well.

I've often wondered if, when using consecutive 
ANDs the filter processor skips the record if the first WITH is false. Why 
bother testing the second field if both are ANDed.

Thanks for the suggestion. We will try uvsh the next time we have the

continued for so long we were able to have users in our various locations
make multiple attempts to login from multiple PCs. Surprisingly, some
locations claimed they could not login at all, others claimed that some PCs
could be logged in while other could not. Either our assumption that the
problem affects all users is false or the problem occurred many times but
each time for only a short period of time. Once again users already in
Universe noticed no problems and no unusual locks we noted when we used the
command list.readu every. analyze.shm -s does not show any unusually

Procs are definitely a subject that will start a good debate.   I don't
think Procs offer any performance advantage at all.   It does offer the
ability to do things that are possible in paragraphs like PROCWRITES.   That
said,  I personally have never been a fan of procs.

I started out in the Pick marketplace as a programmer for a software company
that had an R83 Pick based manf package and was just moving to Prime
Information (yes, way back when dinosaurs ran wild).  I had to opportunity
to work on both coming from a neutral background.   My reaction to Pick with
the cryptic Procs over Information with it's online help and command stacker
was you'd have to have some fascination with pain to prefer Pick.   

I am no fan of proc.  I consider it a necessary skillset to support a few
systems.  Never would use it on Universe if I wasn't forced to.

My 2 cents.

time.  the ProVerb manual makes it sound like procs were a migration tool

Paragraphs are only slightly more efficient than a proc for the simple 
reason that a line within a paragraph is first scanned for any inline 
prompting, then immediately handed off to the command line execution 
process, whereas a proc must first interpretively assemble the command line 
then, when the P command is found, hands it off to the command line 
execution process (which of course scans for any inline prompting).  Think 
of a paragraph as simply a stack of command lines executed in order (albeit 
with some testing/branching logic).  Think of a proc as... well.. 
cryptic... *S*  With processor speeds being what they are today, I doubt 
very much that the minute speed differences matter much (IMO).

The reason uv proc was considered a migration tool is that within the 
original implementation of uv, there was no pick support (only ideal and 
prime flavors).  It was envisioned that people would migrate those nasty, 
cryptic procs (which by the way, I DO not consider nasty) to 
paragraphs.  Only hitch was that paragraphs did not support all the 
functionality available with procs (jump backwards to labels,  error 
handling, etc...) so a proc processor was created.  Granted, it was not 
100% compatible with Pick (see other thread related to proc error 
handling), but it certainly eased those migrations (i was involved in quite 
a few of them back in the 80s).

Title: [UD] Determining if list exists




I'm not sure if this is what your looking for, but 
here goes.
Insert the statement IF # S GO 99 after the initial SELECT statement. If no 
items are selected, then the proc proceeds to label 99 which displays a message 
and exists the proc. This prevents the situation where you end up printing all 
transactions, if no items selected.

  Is there a Unidata or Uniquery command that tells 
  you if a select list exists? In UniBasic I can use a SelectInfo function 
  to determine if a list exists, but I can't find a way to do it at the TCL 
  prompt.
  I have the following PQN PROC. The PROC 
  itself works fine if there is something to return from the selection 
  criteria. However, if nothing is selected in the SELECT statement (like 
  the one below would if we ran it today), the PROC does what it is told and 
  lists the whole file, since it is never given a list, resulting in a huge 
  printout of every AR transaction.
  HSSELECT AR WITH PAYMENT.DATE GE "2-9-04"

UniDebugger in SB+

2004-02-04 Thread David Beahm
I was inspired by a recent post to take another swing at getting 
UniDebugger to work w/ our UD6/SB+5.2/HPUX system.  I have scripted the 
login, and can open, edit, and compile code.  However, when I try to run 
a program through UniDebugger, the output window shows

- logging into Dual debugging session -
- login completed -
...and nothing more happens.  If I choose Session | Show Dual Session 
then I see where something tried to execute tty and received Not a verb

Also, I've noticed that CTRL C is caught by the UniDebugger (which 
complains there is nothing selected).  How can I interactively tell a 
program to break?

Any suggestions?  I'd really love to see this thing work, it would 
certainly be an asset.

TIA,

Why 
not just use the 'REQUIRE.SELECT' or 'SELECT.ONLY' keywords in your query? This

Windows 2000 ODBC connectivity problem...

2004-02-04 Thread Williams, Stephen
I have the UniData 6.0 ODBC client software installed on a Windows NT 4.0
machine and a Windows 2000 machine.

Setting up an System DSN ODBC profile on the Window NT box work just fine,
however on the Windows 2000 machine, whenever I access the server drop
down list box, there are no servers present even though I have several set
up properly in the uci.config file.

When I just manually type the server in and try to use the ODBC profile
elsewhere, it doesn't work.  

I checked both machines and the uci.config file is identical on both
machines (same path and content) and the registry key is consistent on both
boxes as well.  

Registry Key:
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\IBM\UniClient\UCI:UciCfgFile

uci.config path:
C:\IBM\UniDK\Config\uci.config


Does anyone have any insight on this one?  Any help you can give is greatly
appreciated.

IBM actually has documentation on this. 
http://publibfi.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/pdf/9155.pdf
It's in the first chapter. You just need to copy the data files
through the network and use the convdata  convcode tools. I
would recommend a complete rebuild of indexes as opposed to using
convidx.
The main issues you will find is things that were coded to interact with
the OS.

RE: Format Text in Output Data File

2004-02-04 Thread Tony Gravagno
Karl has one good way to do it.

I'd like to slug whoever it is that put it into people's heads that CSV is
the universal pipe into Excel.  CSV is for raw data only, it has nothing to
do with formatting.  If you want formatting then you must understand how to
use the functionality built into Excel, and how to invoke those functions.
wIntegrate and AccuTerm are great tools but they are inadequate for this
purpose.

I spent months writing software to address the very pain that people mention
in forums almost every day, but people insist on trying to put the square
CSV peg into the round Excel hole.  I'm not making a sales pitch, just
encouraging you to take a look at this audio/video presentation to see
what's possible:

[UV] Problem with GET(ARG.,1)

2004-02-04 Thread Barry Brevik
If the command line contains a trailing '?' character, it appears that

  GET(ARG.,1)FILTER

...returns an empty string. This is probably documented somewhere, right

Hi Barry,

Probably is documented but a ? at the end of a command line at TCL will
not execute the line and just store it on the command stack. I am
surprised your program is executing at all.

Universe Date Conversions Using the SQL.B.INTDATE

2004-02-04 Thread Mark Warner
I've been trying to get a date conversion to work for data being inserted
into a SQL/Server table with no success.  When I use the SQL.B.INTDATE and
SQL.DATE parameters in the SQLBindParameter statement, I get the following
error:

 

Status for SQLExecute call is: -1 SQLSTATE,NATCOD are:S1C00  0 

Error text is: [IBM][SQL Client][ODBC][Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server
Driver]Optional feature not implemented

 

I've tried multiple formats and combos with no success.  I'm running on
IBM/U2 Release 10.0.10

 

As always with this group, that's for the great help..

Re: UDT SELECT optimization

2004-02-04 Thread Mark Johnson
Title: Message



My example was multiple WITH clauses that are 
ANDed. Breaking them up may be more efficient. Your example begs the question of 
what is faster:

SELECT ORDERS WITH DATE = "01.01.04" BY 
TIME
vs
SELECT ORDERS BY TIME WITH DATE = 
"01.01.04"

I tend to put the WITH's first if that 
matters.

  I've 
  always thought that a SELECT that reduces the results first then SORTS would 
  be quicker, eg
   SELECT ORDERS WITH 
  DATE = "01/01/04" BY TIME
  where
   WITH DATE = 
  "01/01/04" is what reduces the results
  and
   BY 
  TIMEis 
  the selection criteria
  
  based on the logic that the reduced list would be quicker to 
  sort... Dunno where I picked up this thought process, but I am from a Prime / 
  R83background.

SELECT optimization
Cached in memory is correct as well as the 
second statement will only have to process fewer records if the WITH was 
done in the first. Breaking up a SELECT statement into 2 parts may be 
advantageous, regardless of caching, if there are multiple ANDed WITH 
clauses and one or more of them involve translates. For 
example:

SSELECT HUGE.ARCHIVE.FILE WITH CUST.ZIP = 
"12345" AND WITH PERIOD = "199910"

would be faster as
SELECT HUGE.ARCHIVE.FILE WITH PERIOD = 
"199910"
then
SSELECT HUGE.ARCHIVE.FILE WITH CUST.ZIP = 
"12345"

assuming that CUST.ZIP is translated and the 
PERIOD is a local field. Note the SSELECT in the second statement as 
well.

I've often wondered if, when using consecutive 
ANDs the filter processor skips the record if the first WITH is false. Why 
bother testing the second field if both are ANDed.

my 1 cent.

  Chuck,
  
  The order should be immaterial ( it is on every other 
  database I can think of ). 
  
  Just be aware that if you test it byissuing the 
  commands one after the other, the second may may complete quicker, simply 
  because the file may be cached in memory.

  Does anyone know whether one of these two

  SELECT FILE BY SOME.DATE WITH SOME.FIELD = 
  "XXX"
  -or-
  SELECT FILE WITH SOME.FIELD = "XXX" BY 
  SOME.DATE
  
  Does the parser / optimizer (if there is one) do 
  the filter portion of the statement first regardless of the order that you 
  build it in or does it do things EXACTLY in the order that you enter them 
  on the command line?

Re: Memo: Re: [UD] Determining if list exists

2004-02-04 Thread Mark Johnson
I once worked on a UV (SCO/Dell Poweredge) that was ported from a MCD that
had a lot of IF E = 401, IF  E = 201 etc. Come to think of it, every TCL
statement generates an ERRMSG. They're just not all errors. 100 items
selected is stored in ERRMSG.

The ERRMSG dialect is evoked from the STOP databasic Statement. Does anyone
know of any other way to evoke ERRMSG text. I've often wondered.

thanks.

 Are you sure the IF E = 401 bit works in UV?

 This would not work within UV unless proc had been rewritten
 (doubtful).  The error handling within uv is different and this is one of
 those areas affected by that difference.  You can only test IF E or IF #E.


 AFAIK, in UV, E = 0 if there are no items SELECTed, at least in Pick
 flavo*u*r.

 Yep.


 The 401 bit is vanilla Pick, which I remember we had to change on
 conversion to UV back in 9.3???.
 
 Dunno about UD, though
