Re: [U2] BCI Interface
I have not found any way to force SQL type compatibility, but I have worked around it by using CAST/CONVERT in the SQL statement to make UniData see the data as a type it did recognize. In my case it was a matter of BigInt not being handled (which is ironic, since U2 doesn't usually fuss about whether something is a string or a number). I don't know if that is going to work for your situation, though.

John, Apart from NFS mounts, rsync is your new best friend here (assuming you have it on the aix box - a quick google shows it is available.) I would do something like rsync -vaze ssh localdir remotehost:/remotedir Where v = verbose, a=archive mode (preserve directory structure, dates, times, perms etc.), z= compress/decompress on the fly and e ssh is the transport mechanism. Test it on a small directory first as trailing slashes on the local directory has an effect on what you copy. Rsync will only copy differences so if you get 1/2 way through a directory and kill it, it will restart where it left off, or pick up any changes to files already copied in the meantine. If you kill it 1/2 way through an individual file it will restart that whole file though. When moving files around multiple machines it is one of those can't live without tools. If you need to share the machine or network, you can also use the --bwlimit flag to reduce the net copy speed so you don't impede on other users. Not sure if this will help your stall problem though - if that is an ssh problem you will see the same issue. Possibly using -v on scp to see the debug messages?

RE: [U2] RE: Unidata Printing Question
You may or may not have things set up the same, but when this happens on our system, the solutions are: 1. font size - the PCL font size (or pitch or whatever it's called on that specific model of printer) needs to be set to match all the other printers 2. page breaks - the unix page length (defined in the unix printer queue setup) is different from the printer page length - in this case, less. They should be equal. (this assumes you're running on unix) Now, if you're controlling the font size within your programs or drivers, the driver you're using for this printer should match the driver you're using for the other printers (which may not necessarily be the driver that matches the model of this printer). For example, for much of our PCL code, we always tell AIX that our printers are HP LJ3's even if they're 4200's. The AIX driver for the LJ3 works the best with our code (or vice-versa, depending on how you want to look at it). -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of KidFromBrooklyn Sent: Friday, July 13, 2007 3:23 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] RE: Unidata Printing Question We tried different settings.

RE: [U2] Unidata ODBC
Jeff Please make sure your DICTionaries are accurate and reflect the date. All Single values should be described as S, all Multi-Values should be described as MVs and all sub-values should be described as MS All associated MV and MS should be in Phrases - ideally all unassociated MVs should have their own PHrase. Don't have DICTionary entries you don't want (makes both speed and VSG so much easier - Add All.). I set up a separate account for ODBC access (by group of users) with separate DICTionaries for ODBC accessible files and pointers to the live data level (only) files. Create you DICTionary entries here, not in the live dictionary file (unless you are VERY unusual and only have clean dictionaries (I've never seen it). All names should be SQL compatible (no periods or @s, etc - VSG will do this for you but again I like to have control). If you change the dictionary drop the schema first and then recreate it afterwards. Save the SQL used to create each schema from VSG - put it in paragraphs in case of need. Create all schemas using a HAT (functional user) not an individual user name. Whoever creates them owns them - and you do not want that user id deleted. Regards JayJay -Original Message- From: Jeffrey Butera We may embark down the ODBC connectivity path with Unidata (7.1.8 on solaris 9). My understanding is that I need to get the UniData clients toolkit and, in particular: UniODBC, the UniDK developer's Toolkit, and the Visual Schema Generator. Can anyone confirm this, and how/where I obtain these downloads if I already have a licensed Unidata product (yes, I have serial number, etc). All I've found on the IBM website is trials/demos.

[U2] syntax for joining two files in Retrieve statement using Universe
I would like to populate a Retrieve statement in Universe joining two files linking common fields in those two files. What would be the syntax to use to accomplish my need? If I want to list in that Retrieve statement, dictionary and non-dictionary items, is it just enough to Prefix the file name with a period after -example PM.PMID, POLI.VENDOR. Thanks for the help.

Re: [U2] syntax for joining two files in Retrieve statement using Universe
My suggestion would for Krish to get a very good understanding of what normal outputs are available in Retrieve and to understand the way our post-dictionary items work. AFAIK, all queries function on a primary data file and everything is relative to that file. Therefore, the answer is NO, you can not just type PM.PMID or POLI.VENDOR and the desired results magically appear. His illustrated suggestions indicate that he comes from a different database where the filedotfield style is normal and virtually required. Him learning that our applications do not need all the fields defined at the dicitonary level in order to work in Data/Basic will be one of his first surprises. From there he can learn that there's really 2 sides to the database: The unregulated updates from Basic and the later usage using retrieval languages. Therefore, the data/basic program need not know of the dictionary item called VENDOR to put data in the proper attribute assumed to be the vendor. It updates the field by field number, not by field name. While this may not cover his exact question, it should lay the foundation for learning how MV works in general and to begin to identify the differences between MV and SQL-style databases. If anyone is using a 4GL or other hamburger helper that performs the functions, then it should be made aware that these are private extensions of the MV data model and not MV by itself.

RE: [U2] syntax for joining two files in Retrieve statement using Universe
If I understand what you're asking for, I'm not aware of a way to use two dictionaries in one Retrieve statement. You would, instead, create dictionary entries in your primary file that accomplish the linking to other files for an attribute by attribute connection. Look up xlate or trans to be used in i-descriptor dictionary entries. You're not in SQL-Kansas an more, Toto. :-) BobW -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 13, 2007 5:35 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] syntax for joining two files in Retrieve statement using Universe I would like to populate a Retrieve statement in Universe joining two files linking common fields in those two files.
