Re: [U2] [UV] TEXT box subroutine

2006-09-17 Thread Mark Johnson
I'm interested in hearing why accuterm is so bad and why Openinsight is
preferred.

One of the consultants I work with uses both and prefers accuterm. I'm
liking accuterm the more I use it for GUI and have presently concluded that
OI is a database instead of a front end/emulator. It's easier to implement a
new emulator like accuterm with its features than a new database conversion.

Thanks
Mark Johnson

 Accuterm, as we have found it, is a horrible tool for gui.  You should
 have check out OpenInsight.  Real windows tool.

 But then eveyone has their favorites.

  Hi Bob,
 
  Have you looked at AccuTerm as an alternative to Dynamic Connect. The
  associated GUI library is amazing. We were recently involved in
conversion
  of a UniVerse application from character mode to GUI mode complete with
  mouse support and the major parts of the job took two people less than
three
  days.

Accuterm has a TXTBOX subroutine that can be immediately added anywhere from
within any green screen program for the desired answer.

I didn't look specifically, but I'm guessing that it has a multi-line
counterpart.

Thanks.

 I wasn't implying I was looking for a gui tool.  Maybe I phrased it
 wrong.  What I'm trying to accomplish is a green screen solution where
 I'd be more than happy to re-display my underlying form and data after
 I've allowed the user to modify a lengthy description field.  My intent
 is to only display the first couple of lines but when the user wants to
 edit that description, I display a box that they can move up and down,
 left and right, insert and delete then either save the changes or reset
 back to the original contents of the field.

 The solutions I've been given, thus far, all look promising.  I'm
 currently checking each to see how I could customize them to what my
 specific needs are.

 Again, thanks to everyone on the list!

Re: [U2] [UV] TEXT box subroutine

2006-09-17 Thread Mark Johnson
Here goes.

Accuterm is incredibly affordable. $1,000 for 50 licenses. That's great to
begin with.

Second, for us programmers: WED is a great editor marrying the MS feel of
Notepad with a MV-oriented editor. Indenting, multi-windows, cut  paste,
label finding, color coding, opening subordinate programs etc.

Third, GED (the GUI designer) creates regular mv subroutines that can be
incorporated in an existing green screen apps and menus.

2 of my clients mandate new development in GED and to back-develop existing
programs when time is available.

IIRC, there is no magic pill to convert a green screen app to a gui app. Key
word is CONVERT instead of re-write. The ability to manage a multi-year
transition with GED/green screens is very appealing to end user environments
instead of VAR environments.

My 2 cents.

 I would really like it if all parties could give arguments to support
 their opinion of it: is it solid? Satisfying to the users? Supported or
 not on certain platforms? Working best or worst with certain types of
 programs? etc. I would help me and hopefully others cut through some
 time and efforts.

 Thanks in advance.

[U2] UV.ACCESS Record Structure

2006-09-17 Thread Perry Taylor
I need to add a user to the LOG_ACT record in UV.ACCESS to allow that user to
programmatically active/deactivate logging for files.  I cannot find any
documentation on the record structure.

It appears that attribute one is a multi-valued list of user ids and attribute
two a multi-valued list of privileges.  What is confusing is it appears that
the privileges are not correlative to the users.  In other words, apparently,
there is no way to assign privileges per user.  Is this correct?

For example here is what my LOG_ACT record looks like...

CT UV.ACCESS LOG_ACT
 LOG_ACT
0001 uvadm}root}NT AUTHORITY\system
0002 READ}WRITE
Note that there are three users but only two privileges.
I find that I can add a user to attribute one and accomplish what I need but
I'd like to know more about UV.ACCESS so I don't break something.
Thanks.
