I didn't test the 401 on UV but it was a very popular item on MCD's back in the day and i've got some UD that were clearly converted from MCD (Results) and they work there. So, i may hae jumped the gun trying to remember which is which. Also, maybe the flavor matters.
I do recall an ex client with UV having a lot of E tests but i don't have any of it available at this time. Perhaps this indicates a need to be platform specific or to retire the concept as it's scattered. I just checked the ERRMSG file on a nearby D3 system and item 0 is for automatic testing. Perhaps the implementation moved some ERRMSG items around. 201 should be Filename? and 203 should be Itemname? 335 was the initial logon message. thanks. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bruce Nichol" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "U2 Users Discussion List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, February 05, 2004 12:12 AM Subject: Re: Memo: Re: [UD] Determining if list exists > Goo'day, > > Well................................
