Yes - project finished - I ended up coding it to do the UPCASE on the fly by moving the current Attribute into a WorkVariable and UPCASEing the WorkVariable. Ultimately, it seemed better than 'permenantly' wasting the space on disk when we may never have to do another insert.
I didn't do the doing RAISE on that WorkVariable, however, since it was a single attribute, I didn't think I would 'gain' much on the LOCATE -- but I'll have to do some testing along the way to see... Subject of a new email thread! How much speed gain is there on a LOCATE by attributes vs LOCATE within a Single Attribute by Value?? <g> Thanks for all the feedback guys n gals! > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ken Wallis > Sent: Tuesday, August 28, 2007 9:22 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: RE: [U2] [ud] Question on Alpha Sorting... > > David, > > Doubtless you'll have coded this by now, but certainly in the > situation you describe, ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
