I know you've solved it :-) but something else that is very useful ...

Look in VOC for entries called 1 or F1 etc. I'm not sure how far it
goes by default, but I always add extras as I need them. They're default
dictionary items so you can at least look at a field.

In your case
LIST filename F30
would probably fail with F30 not found, but for smaller numbers it
would list the field, and if you edited F1, replaced line 2 with the
number 30, and saved it as F30 that command would then display the
contents of field 30 for you.

A useful trick ...

Cheers,
Wol

Tyler,
 
Try using CT instead of LIST-ITEM.
 
CT will display every line in the record including blank ones.
 
The LIST-ITEM command skips blank lines and something may be causing it to skip 
30.
 
CT and LIST-ITEM don't use the dictionary so that's not the problem.
 
Also, you can look at the record with ED or AE editors.
 
Regards,

Don Robinson

Subject: [U2] Data not seen using LIST.ITEM

Hello,
Currently in the program I have, when I read values into an array called SR,
if I do SR30 it shows the correct value on the screen. 30 also corresponds
with the column number in the file as well. But when I do LIST.ITEM file
ID number column 30 does not appear on the screen - all the other columns
do except that one. This field is updated by another program so would that
effect how the file displays data? Do I need to modify the dictionary of the
file to allow this data to become available? Thank you to anyone who can
assist me.

PS. I am new to the language of UniVerse but I have programmed for some
years before so I apologize if some of my terminology is incorrect.
