Just a suggestion - do you have the most recent UniDK from latest the client CD?

Considering, I have 57 missed up records in the last 4 months and we do an average of 2000 per day. We use both VB6 and VB.NET and it happens for both. Sometimes the writefield wipes out all the fields upto the field it updated. This makes me think for some reason when it goes to do the write.field it does not see the record and thinks it is writing a new record. There is 3 different scenarios this happens. 1. PC process connects to the Universe, selected the data, processes each record, passes the data from each record to WORD for a word merge, prints the resulting document, then updates via the writefield the date flag showing the record was printed. In this instance it is field 4, when it happens here, the record is thus <1> <2> <3> <4> 13854 This process connects every some often (5 minutes at the moment - we can change the timing) and does this through out the day. Plus we run this process in a batch mode in the evening, this picks up any record we set to be in the batch process, select ranges from 700-3500 records. 2. Add another twist to this. We also have a VB product that connects to Universe, passes in data, a UV subroutine creates the record in batch mode so it is not picked up immediately by the above process. Once the record is created, the VB process attaches files to it, then does a write.field to change the mode from batch to immediate. (simple Y/N field). It will also blank out everything but the 2 fields it was trying to update. 3. Add a 3rd twist, it makes it through 1 or both processes listed above and the document is being faxed instead of printed. We write back a field showing it went "Y" or it failed "F" . When it does this, the record is blank except for the "Y" or "F" in field 26. Any ideas I can pass to our VB folks? Thanks, Brenda Price -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
