UniBasic does not prevent you from writing out a record or ID with char(0)
imbedded. It is a legal character.
No guesses as to the cause of your particular issue.
To assist in diagnosis, you can search your problem file for all occurances
of char(0) in data records or keys using an option on 'guide'.
For instance:
guide -U0 PROBLEM.FILE.NAME
option is -U followed by the ascii charcter number you want to search for.

[U2] [UD] Possible causes of
11/01/2007 12:35 corrupt data on a UniData static
PM file
Please respond to

Hello,
I have been getting corrupt data lately. Stuff like this:
sort: warning: first character of the record is '\0' discard it!
sort: warning: the record contain '\0' character, discard it!
sort: warning: the record contain '\0' character, discard it!
sort: warning: the record contain '\0' character, discard it!
sort: warning: the record contain '\0' character, discard it!
sort: warning: the record contain '\0' character, discard it!
sort: warning: the record contain '\0' character, discard it!
Are there any programming no-no's that could cause stuff like this, for
instance:
1. Putting logic in an UPDATE trigger that calls a UniData function that
run a UniQuery statement that creates XML, then writes that XML to a file
(to be HTTP transmitted later by a separate background task).
2. Putting logic in an UPDATE trigger that compares the prior record to the
one about to be written, then updates a log file if the records are
different.
3. Four separate indexes on a file.
I'm getting desperate. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks.
Ed
