I do not know how you would do this in GT.M. But in Cache, when I am in a terminal window at the programmer's prompt I would do the following:
VAH>S PATH="your path" S PATH=$$DEFDIR^%ZISH(PATH) W !!,PATH VAH>S FILE="your filename" VAH>S %IO=PATH_FILE VAH>S %IS="%IO:(newversion):3" VAH>O @%I2 W !!,$T This is what %ZISH is doing when it is trying to open a new file to write to. If you want to read a file in, everything is the same for the OPEN command except: VAH>S %IS="%IO:(readonly):3" The question is what happens when you issue that OPEN command? Do you get an error? Is path what you expect it to be? If you do not get an error then what is the value of $T after the open command? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gregory Woodhouse" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <hardhats-members@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Tuesday, June 21, 2005 1:12 AM Subject: Re: [Hardhats-members] Does not ask DEVICE while exporting > That test shows that these are definitely two different files, not > links to the same file. > > My hunch is that there is something in the device handling code that > inserts "OpenVistA", perhaps a workaround for something else, I don't > know.
