Re: [U2] Trick for PartFiles and Indices
In message [EMAIL PROTECTED], David A Barrett [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes We have a monster file that hit the 2GB mark way back when, so we divided it up in a distributed file. It continues to grow, and the keys are largely sequential with a partitioning algorithm that puts each block of one million records into a part. Currently the file grows at a pace of about one million records every 2 years, and it's a pain in the neck to add a new part because the ten indexes on it need to be rebuilt each time you add a new part. With 8 million records, it takes a good long time to rebuild all of the indices. The other thing about this is that I go through this operation only once each two years, so that I forget the finer details about fiddling with distributed files. So before I do it on our live system, I play around with a test file to figure it out. This is where I found something interesting. Actually, I think all this was in the manuals as long ago as Prime INFORMATION ... :-) As Karl said, each partfile is a file in and of itself, with its own indices. If you try and run an index-based command over a distributed file, it will only display and/or use the indices that exist in EVERY partfile. It certainly used to be (quite likely has changed now :-) that if you tried to SELECT the distributed file and the index existed in nine part-files but not the tenth, it would ignore the index *completely*. Bearing in mind that distributed files can be created easily with ED (provided that the partfiles already exist as partfiles), I think UV checks the partfiles when you access them (not looking up info from PARTFILES). So again as Karl says, if you just create the new partfile, index it, and add it, you won't upset the index status across the distributed file. Cheers, Wol -- Anthony W.

Re: [U2] New Account Setup - Copy VOC ?
Looks like the new VOC was incompletely copied from NEWACC, or someone has given NEWACC a severe haircut. Check these possibilities, lest you get bitten over and over. If your small VOC contains COPY and NEWACC, then it might be better to copy from there. You can use UVwrite to put an ED entry into your VOC. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

[U2] [OT] - Texas Sales Tax
This is totally off topic and apologize for this. Starting in January of next year, we will be collecting sales tax for packages that we ship to Texas and was wondering if someone would be willing to share (off-topic would be fine) on how they figure out the correct tax for each city code. Unfortunately we cannot go by zip code and I was wondering what other people have done. Reason for that, in their PDF, they use the example of Kingwood, Texas (which we have 4 zip codes for) states that the tax collected should go to City of Houston and the Houston MTA, not to Kingwood. Outside of that explaination, I cannot find any other cross reference between the 2, to try to create some logic out of it.

[U2] [Ad] Free Web Developer
U2logic, a Colorado based tools and web developer, is announcing the release of its newly developed XLr8 Developer for Web programming. The XLr8 Developer is an Eclipse plug-in and part of U2logic's every growing tools available for the U2 databases. U2logic has taken an open source lightweight remote procedure call protocol called json-rpc and is used to communicate with U2 databases. The overhead for this software is minimal so that the communication with U2 database is anywhere from 30% to 700% faster than prior technology U2logic used from IBM. Json-rpc uses open source web server from Apache's Tomcat and can run on most every hardware and software platform. Currently, json-rpc is being ported to Microsoft's .Net platform. U2logic is calling this middleware U2Weblink. U2Weblink is currently available in a two user version at no cost and can be downloaded from www.u2logic.com. XLr8 Developer is part of XLr8 Editor, XLr8 Installer, XLr8 Resizer, and XLr8 Object Editor. These tools are downloaded with the XLr8 Editor and are currently available at no cost.

Re: [U2] Somewhere other than HOLD
Don't know if this will help, but here is what I did to solve a similar problem in Unidata. The first step we took was to start using the BANNER UNIQUE (string) setptr option. Hopefully, that option is available in Universe. So, the setptr command would contain something like BANNER UNIQUE FRED or BANNER UNIQUE BARNEY. This causes the files in the _HOLD_ file to start with FRED or BARNEY. The rest of the _HOLD_ key is a sequential number, which is stored in the Dictionary of _HOLD_. The next step is to have a separate program that checks the _HOLD_ file every five minutes and takes some action, based on the filename. e.g., if it starts with FRED, do this. If it starts with BARNEY, do something else. Some other things that I tried, which did not work on Unidata, but may work on Universe: 1) Put a trigger on the _HOLD_ file. Unidata cannot do this, since _HOLD_ is a DIR type file. 2) Delete the _HOLD_ file and recreate it as a hashed file, which would allow a trigger to be used. Unidata really did not like this at all. hth Charlie Rubeor [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote on 10/26/2006 11:49:59 AM: Is there a way in UV to direct a printjob to another file besides HOLD using the SETPTR (more precisely the !SET.PTR command?

RE: [U2] [OT] - Texas Sales Tax
Larry is right, logic has nothing to do with taxes. Strategically, I've found the best way to do tax calculations is to first assign codes to different tax types and then group these codes into a collection for a specific spot on a map (i.e. geocode). Certain areas will have city, county, state, transportation, education, or even just-for-the-sport-of-it tax types and the boundary of which tax types apply to a given area could be separated by a dirt road that doesn't even appear on a map. There are also tax rules for specific products being sold to specific areas or specific types of customers in specific areas and every combination of madness extended from there. Making matters worse, boundaries, tax rates, eligibility, exemptions, exceptions, etc. change at a moments notice. The coding of the calculation is itself not rocket science, but the collection of data to support those calculations is excessive even by government standards. For this reason products like Vertex that manage this mind-numbing minutae will always be needed in a country whose government severely obfuscates the obvious and then prosecutes for non-compliance. -Kevin [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.PrecisOnline.com ** Check out scheduled Connect! training courses at http://www.PrecisOnline.com/train.html. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
[U2][UV] Terminal Cursor Control
I'm having one of those how do they do that moments. Several weeks ago we implemented the use of SYSTEM(4001)/SYSTEM(4002) to alter the UniVerse command prompt (as seen on the U2-Users Channel). As luck would have it we use vt220 emulation so in addition to being able to change the prompt I have made a ton of users very happy. They can now edit their command-line input using the arrow keys, etc., something we haven't been able to do since our migration to UniVerse from jBASE. Well, now I have embarked on a project to provide a secure command prompt to control access to commands, etc.. This of course means that anything I code will have to have the same command line editing functionality provided with the customized prompt or I will have to disappoint users a second time. (Something a smart IT professional should definitely avoid!) One behavior the custom prompt provides is for the backspace (destructive) and left arrow keys to wrap from the beginning of a second, or successive, line back to the prior input line. I have yet to discover how to accomplish that behavior in BASIC. CRT @(-9,1): successfully moves the cursor to the left until we reach column zero where it stops and will not wrap back up to the end of the line above. The UniVerse BASIC Commands Reference has this to say about @(-9)... --- Integer Equate Name Function Argument --- --- -- b9 IT$CUB Back space one character Number of characters to back space Back Space One Char @(IT$CUB) Moves the cursor one position to the left without deleting any data. For m greater than 0, the function @(IT$CUB, m) moves the cursor m positions to the left. In moving to the left, the cursor cannot move beyond the start of the line. --- I have perused a bunch of the source code in BP and APP.PROGS in the UV account to see if I could find any hints there but most everything is either based on INPUT @(X,Y) or raw character input using KEYIN(). I have no idea if the SYSTEM(4001/4002) input routine is implemented in BASIC or something else. Feels like I'm at a dead end. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

RE: [U2] [OT] - Texas Sales Tax
Starting in January of next year, we will be collecting sales tax for packages that we ship to Texas and was wondering if someone would be willing to share (off-topic would be fine) on how they figure out the correct tax for each city code. Unfortunately we cannot go by zip code and I was wondering what other people have done. Reason for that, in their PDF, they use the example of Kingwood, Texas (which we have 4 zip codes for) states that the tax collected should go to City of Houston and the Houston MTA, not to Kingwood. Outside of that explaination, I cannot find any other cross reference between the 2, to try to create some logic out of it. The software package we use has what they call tax jurisdictions. This makes the layered sales taxes like Texas easier. Each customer account can have up to 3 tax jurisdictions assigned. For example, one can be for the state portion, one for a county portion, a third for the city portion. === Norman Morgan [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.brake.com === A cynic is a person searching for an honest man with a stolen lantern. === --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] Somewhere other than HOLD
a little too much for the small number of print jobs that will be affected.

The first step we took was to start using the BANNER UNIQUE (string) setptr option. Hopefully, that option is available in Universe. So, the setptr command would contain something like BANNER UNIQUE FRED or BANNER UNIQUE BARNEY. This causes the files in the _HOLD_ file to start with FRED or BARNEY. The rest of the _HOLD_ key is a sequential number, which is stored in the Dictionary of _HOLD_. The next step is to have a separate program that checks the _HOLD_ file every five minutes and takes some action, based on the filename. e.g., if it starts with FRED, do this. If it starts with BARNEY, do something else. Some other things that I tried, which did not work on Unidata, but may work on Universe: 1) Put a trigger on the _HOLD_ file. Unidata cannot do this, since _HOLD_ is a DIR type file. 2) Delete the _HOLD_ file and recreate it as a hashed file, which would allow a trigger to be used. Unidata really did not like this at all. hth Charlie Rubeor [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote on 10/26/2006 11:49:59 AM: Is there a way in UV to direct a printjob to another file besides HOLD using the SETPTR (more precisely the !SET.PTR command?

RE: [U2][UV] Terminal Cursor Control
Feels like I'm at a dead end. Anyone have any ideas? Well... these sequences will move the cursor to a specific column on the current row. The examples exhibit moving the cursor to the left edge of the screen: PRINT CHAR(16):CHAR(0): PRINT @(-70,0): ...or... PRINT CHAR(8): ...goes left one char at a time (non-destructive on my terminals). If using wIntegrate: PRINT CHAR(27):CHAR(1):'Display at 0':CHAR(13): These sequences are non-destructive, so if your goal is to rub-out the char to the left, you'll either have to backup, then erase the current char (PRINT @(-22): might work for that), or back up, print a space, and backup again. Or, maybe someone will chime in with the 'right' way to do a destructive backup. I have a callable routine I could send to you, if you want (need your email). It is a fairly full-featured single line data entry with arrows, backspace, back/forward word, end, beginning etc. It might be overkill for your needs.
