It's in the UV account and in the data account.  My test program is
written in VB6 using UniObjects against an UniVerse v10.1.11 account.

But I still get no results.

Sara,

How do I set up the UVCS.LOGIN paragraph?  I don't have one on my system
to use as a template.  I have searched the UV PDF documentation and
Googled for UVCS.LOGIN but found nothing helpful.

I tried this:
CT VOC UVCS.LOGIN

 UVCS.LOGIN
0001 PA
0002 JEFLOGIN
0003 END:

But it didn't run the JEFLOGIN program, so I assume this VOC paragraph
was not run either.


Thanks,

Hi all

I am setting up a new UV production server. UV 10.1.18 on Windows Server
2003, INFORMATION flavour. Access is via QVTTerm. On the existing prod
server, when you enter your enterprise login ID at the server login, UV
up cases the login ID and presents it to the UV.LOGINS file. However, on
the new server it is changing the login ID to lower case. Since all our
apps expect upper case, this is very frustrating.

For example, on the existing server I login as auser14 and a Who at TCL
shows KIWI\AUSER14. UV.LOGINS is:

Record Key :AUSER14
001 DOMAIN:KIWI
002 LOCAL  :
003 DOMAIN.ACCOUNT   :D:\DATA\USERS
004 LOCAL.ACCOUNT  :
005 DESC   :Andrew Mack
End of record

On the new server. I login as auser14 and a Who at TCL shows
KIWI\auser14. If I login as AUSER14, a Who at TCL shows KIWI\auser14. I
have to have UV.LOGINS records in both AUSER14 and auser14 otherwise it
falls over with the error Unable to find user account information in
the UV.LOGINS file.

Could someone please advise what setting determines the case that UV
works with?

[U2] [ud] Question on Alpha Sorting...

2007-08-24 Thread David Wolverton
I have a need to sort people by LastName,FirstName.

The issue is that we 'accept' data from lots of sources, some that are
ProperCapped, some that are all lower, AND SOME THAT ARE ALL UPPER.

I need to 'present' them correctly sorted, but show the data 'as it is'

The record currently contains a MV list of the names 'as is' -- there could
500 names in the list.

My way of handing it (now) is to open a New attribute that I put a 'ALL
CAPS' version of the Name into, and then each insert, I so a LOCATE BY 'AL'
into the new attribute, and insert the 'SORTNAME' into the new attribute,
and the 'as TyPed NAme' as always - just now, we're not using the 'as typed'
for the sort.

My issue ... I've doubled the data being stored in order to accomplish this!
Is there a more elegant, logical way to handle this issue besides having a
'SortName' attribute and an 'AsTyped' attribute in the record?

Thanks for any thoughts for this Friday afternoon mind-tease!  (Ah ... I
miss D3's case insensitivity from time to time!!)

RE: [U2] [ud] Question on Alpha Sorting...

2007-08-24 Thread David Wolverton
I was just concerned about this record, as names get added individually -- I
thought about doing an UPCASE on a memory version of the MultiValue list,
but once that list gets to having 100 or 200 names on it, would the 'hit'
for doing an UPCASE on an in-memory version be 'less than' the disk-access
time for the larger item...

Falls into the 'is there a better way' category of thinking.  Like I said --
D3 has sorting WAY better than U2 in this area.  (*Just* this one area, but
in this case, it's all I'm talking about! g)

RE: [U2] [ud] Question on Alpha Sorting...

2007-08-24 Thread Derek Falkner
Duplicating data in the way you suggest is something I detest! The chance of
mis-typing the name the second time is just too great and then there is all
that extra disk space consumed.

I would prefer to see the names, as typed, stored in one attribute. I would
then use a virtual field (is that the right term in Unidata?) to extract the
data in upper case. I am more familiar with Universe, and the corresponding
data definition and I-descriptor would look like this:

ED DICT TEST.UV NAME.INPUT NAME.SORT

SELECTed record name = NAME.INPUT.
6 lines long.
: P
0001: D
0002: 1
0003:
0004: Name (as input)
0005: 30L
0006: M
Bottom at line 6.
: N

SELECTed record name = NAME.SORT.
This is a Type I Descriptor last compiled on 08/24/07 at 17:12.
20 lines long.
: P7
0001: I
0002: SUBR('-OCONVS',NAME.INPUT,'MCU')
0003:
0004: Name (for sorting)
0005: 30L
0006: M
0007:
: X

I'm sure there must be an equivalent in Unidata and someone smarter than I
can explain it better.

RE: [U2] [ud] Question on Alpha Sorting...

2007-08-24 Thread Bob Woodward
Do you deal with multiple entries for a name?  Something you might think of
is an XREF file.  Build it with a key of the UPCASE name, removing spaces,
comma's, periods, @FM, @VM, etc. to make it basically letters (and maybe
numbers).  Then put the original value in an attribute and use the LOCATE on
it to keep the printable versions of the name in sorted order.  You could
easily make the update of this XREF file into a subroutine that could be
called from another program or as a main program that uses a SELECT.LIST,
depending on your needs.  From the numbers you've mentioned, it should be
very fast and clean, provided you set up the subroutine cleanly.

The issue is that we 'accept' data from lots of sources, some that are
ProperCapped, some that are all lower, AND SOME THAT ARE ALL UPPER.

I need to 'present' them correctly sorted, but show the data 'as it is'

The record currently contains a MV list of the names 'as is' -- there could
500 names in the list.

My way of handing it (now) is to open a New attribute that I put a 'ALL
CAPS' version of the Name into, and then each insert, I so a LOCATE BY 'AL'
into the new attribute, and insert the 'SORTNAME' into the new attribute,
and the 'as TyPed NAme' as always - just now, we're not using the 'as typed'
for the sort.

My issue ... I've doubled the data being stored in order to accomplish this!
Is there a more elegant, logical way to handle this issue besides having a
'SortName' attribute and an 'AsTyped' attribute in the record?

Thanks for any thoughts for this Friday afternoon mind-tease!  (Ah ... I
miss D3's case insensitivity from time to time!!)

RE: [U2] [ud] Question on Alpha Sorting...

2007-08-24 Thread David Wolverton
The issue for me is that I am using the list of employees within a program -
so Virtual Dictionaries are not an option - displaying the data.  I
certainly don't want to sort it on use each time, which means I need to do
an insert BY AL -- but in order to do that I have to have the list ready
on read, but I insert names into the list one at a time -- hence I throught
I would have to maintain two attributes -- one 'as keyed' and one in 'sort
case' -- my other choice is to UPCASE the 'as keyed' each time I have to do
an insert.

I guess that's my question:

Which is better

Write a record with two sets of data, one 'as typed' one strictly for
sorting, so that on the next insert, I just create a sort version of the new
name, and insert it in both lists. The downside here is the record is
larger.
OR
Use UPCASE on each need to insert to build the 'insert array' as needed,
find the insert position in that array, then insert the 'AsTyped'.  The
downside to me was having to UPCASE each time an insert is needed. 

I'm trying to figure out the lesser of the evils!

 David:
 
 Create a virtual dictionary that upper cases the name.  Then 
 you sort by the UCNAME but display the normal name.  This 
 works for me.

[U2] Spam to forum addresses - Endorsement for a solution

2007-08-24 Thread Tony Gravagno
Is anyone else getting assaulted with daily spam targeted at addresses
found in this forum?

As you can see, I use SneakEmail.com for posting to forums rather than
using my real email addresses.  With a disposable email address created
just for use in one place, I know immediately where spammers got the
address they're using to send me spam.  This also allows me to simply
re-subscribe to the forum using a newly created address, and to unsubscribe
and delete the address which has been compromised to the spammers.  I have
a different address for every website and forum where I need to provide an
email address - a couple hundred over a period of years, and I don't have
to endure a permanent spam problem because one of them has a problem with
email harvesting bots.

If you're getting spam as a result of being in this forum or any others, I
highly recommend using the free services of sneakemail.com.  I especially
encourage you to upgrade to a US$2/month plan which has worthwhile benefits
and supports the people who maintain it.

And with that, I'm now going to unsubscribe, delete this address, and say
goodbye to the recent spam invasion.

[U2] UV - Files Stats Question

2007-08-24 Thread Jim Koca
I need to select files in an account and determine if all the records fall
in the 200% groups. This will be done in a Basic program. Other than
FILE.STAT each file and examine the output, can it be done simpler ?

Also if anyone is using FAST, can you tell me where FAST keeps the list of
files under its control ?

Thanks,

Jim Koca
