You could use archgid, it can change table ID's too..it goes through the
system and updates all appropriate references...while I've never used it for
forms, I have used it for fields successfully in the past.  Do a search for
recent posts regarding where to get the latest version from the jar files J

Subject: ARS v7.5 - importing forms changed Table ID

 

** 

Hi Everyone,

 

We gave up trying to do the ARS v7.5 platform upgrade on our servers.  Five
months was enough time to waste on that.  Yes, we tried everything ...
that's not my question here today.

 

Sooooo, we decided to build a new server (vm) and start from scratch with a
brand new ARS v7.3 P3 install.  That worked great.  ITSM is NOT involved in
this process at all.

 

Then I exported forms and other workflow objects and did the imports.  Kind
of a long job because the new server database is on a very slow SAN (nothing
I can fix right now).

 

It had not occurred to me that I would loose my original Table ID associated
with that form on another server.  This is a problem since there is workflow
with SQL statements which of course I can change.  But, we also have
numerous programs pulling data from Remedy that use the Table ID's created
by another development group.  This would require them to change their
programs, possibly dblinks etc.  Not a prospect I'm looking forward to.

 

I've only imported data in a couple of forms so far (12 hours worth) and
don't want to proceed if I'm going to delete it anyway.  I'm using rrrChive
for the data and thankfully it's bringing over the correct field 1 values.
I do have to figure out how to use rrrChive to include a date modified
parameter to get updates.

 

Has anyone been successful at changing a Table ID and how did you do it?
Were there any ramifications?

 

Appreciate your help, thanks,

 

Susan
