Hi Jason,

I am an asp.net developer and a recent adopter of UniObjects to connect to our Universe database (our student records system). We are experiencing some issues with odd values returning from some IType dictionary items, which we have narrowed to the absence of initialised globalised variables in subroutine calls. In searching the forums I think it may have been referred to in Universe parlance as the "common block". I have not found a solution on the Technical Postings forums and thinking it would have to be a fairly common issue in legacy systems request a bit of advice/direction.

What is the approach used to set up these global variables(common block) via UniObjects? We don't have the same issue using web service calls to the same subroutines/ITypes. We have a substantial code base that would be a nightmare to re-code, which we need to avoid. Our U2 programmers are already taxed with updating an ever changing system.

This is not a UniObjects specific response, but it sounds to me like you should identify how these values are set during the interactive user login and call those programs (or create a subroutine you can call) before you run your other code.

regards,


Craig
