Monday, May 12, 2008 Tip of the Day #2: Unloading Forms/Labels/Reports Using Database Explorer
Section: Database Explorer (Enhanced Right-Click) Supported Versions: . R:BASE 7.6 for Windows (Build: 7.6.3.30509 or higher) . R:BASE C/S:I 7.6 for Windows (Build: 7.6.3.30509 or higher) . R:BASE Turbo V-8 for Windows (Build: 8.0.17.30509 or higher) Did you know that when you unload a form, label or report using Database Explorer, the default file name includes a suffix _Form, _Label, or _Report for form, label, or report? Using this method, you will never have the problem of forms, labels, or reports with same names wiping out each other's LOB files. For example: When unloading a form named "Customers", the following two files will be created: . Customers_Form.frm . Customers_Form.lob When unloading a label named "Customers", the following two files will be created: . Customers_Label.lbl . Customers_Label.lob When unloading a report named "Customers", the following two files will be created: . Customers_Report.rpt . Customers_Report.lob Very Best R:egards, Razzak.
