[U2] [UD] Break-on
I have a report I've been running in a Pick environment for years without problems.

Re: [U2] SYS.MESSAGE file being corrupted
Charles, we dont run transaction logging. THe has been corrupted 3 times in 3 months. I didnt take a copy of the indexinfocus problems but will look again when its up and running. I am guessing that its the edi routine thats causing this problem but the error message suggests that and there is only one read only file on the system that i know of..

Another TxLg crash yielded a piece of what should have been written to a COMO file (from a job that recycled used TxLg logfiles). I have assumed the two are related. I have seen some postings at indexinfocus but no resolution. I whined and complained on this list in Summer 2004, and at the IBM Las Vegas conference. John, did you find other postings besides mine?

Yes. Under Windows particularly if the item ID has a "*" or any other forbidden filename characters in the key, reads and writes will fail.

RE: [U2] SYS.MESSAGE file being corrupted
I've not run into this before but from what you have listed, I'd be looking at what file the write attempt is being performed on. If it's not the SYS.MESSAGE file, which it probably is not, then I'd be looking at how the file open's are being done. I'd suspect the file handle variable being used on line 317 and 382 is no longer the file you think it is. Something to check for, anyway. You might be able to do a display of the file handle variable in the ON.ABORT segment of your program.

Subject: [UV] SYSTEM(9001) tells you what program you are in & where you came from! From:Stevenson, Charles ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Date:03/20/03 After whining about this for, lo, these many years let me be quick to praise the Universe team for giving us this. This will be a wonderful debugging tool! UV 10.0.6 Patchlist says: 2621 The UniVerse BASIC SYSTEM(9001) function now returns the @LEVEL in correct order, and returns correct addresses. SYSTEM(9001) will return a dynamic array that contains roughly the same info that PORT.STATUS LAYER.STACK or RAID "T" command coughs up. Here is a sample subroutine that displays the data and a dummy program that calls it. Then from the menu, I get to pseudo-TCL and execute the dummy program. >CT CDS.BP SYS9001 DUMMY SYS9001 0001 SUBROUTINE SYS9001 0002 CRT "Depth Executing..

The negative numbers below simply mean those subroutines were called and returned from in the past. I don't think @LEVEL has anything to do with it, contrary to the patchlist text. That's as much as I've figured out so far. - Value 2 is the program - Value 3 is the hex address (the obj address you see when you VLIST a program) For the negative depths, n/a. (0x0 on DUMMY is real. They are small programs.) - The number of values is constant, the number of attributes grows or shrinks. Oh well. SYSTEM(9001) is not in the 10.0 doc set that came with my upgrade pack from IBM, so I figured after all the complaining I have done I at least owe this post.

Re: [U2] Justification for removal of savedlists
I once wrote a "wraparound" to the savelist commands which datestamps the lists on creation and use. Also allows the user to flag a savelist as one that should not be overwritten or deleted. A purge program allows them to purge out savelists that are no longer necessary or haven't been accessed in a given period of time. Really helps keep the items in that file down. But, like Jeff Butera said, colleges especially might need to keep lists around for a while and this really helped some of our schools manage that. -Dianne Jeffrey Butera wrote: >On Monday 06 February 2006 09:51, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > >>[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >> >> >>>I wrote a small routine that will go through Savedlists, HOLD files, >>>ST.PPROCES records, etc. and selectively delete the records that are no >>>longer needed but I have been stopped by my VP. >>> >>>She wants justification for the process.

Among standard FileOpen, ReadU, and dynamic array operations, mv.NET has the ability to work with MV data using commands that are familiar to SQL users: Select, Insert, Update, Delete. And it does this without going through the ODBC/OleDB server. The field references are DICT definitions and the syntax is mostly standard Access/UniQuery. An enhancement which is coming very soon allows more SQL-like queries which will facilitate MV DBMS access for people who are more familiar with relational databases. So to answer your first question, as of sometime next month mv.NET should qualify as a candidate for your consideration. As to the second question, one of my Universe clients had a lot of issues with the ODBC and OleDB server. Long story short, IBM was unable to help.
