RE: [U2] Size of key question
Has this file always had 2 parts? Just wondering as I saw that if the other half of the file was around the same size, then the full file is well under 1Gb so, reducing the mod bringing into 1 part would eliminate overhead of distributing data into 2 files call to your routine on every read/write operation Ross Ferris Stamina Software Visage Better by Design! -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:owner-u2- [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of roy Sent: Wednesday, 17 October 2007 11:52 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] Size of key question _ From: Roy Beard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 16, 2007 10:33 PM To: 'u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org' Subject: File key question Wow!

RE: [U2] Indexing Optimization
FYI... This link has a nice summary of what the major RDBMS offer for the EXPLAIN output: http://www.aquafold.com/docs-ep-plan.html It would be nice to have a version of Aquafold (or one of the many similar multi-OS and multi-database 'aware' toolsets) available for UniVerse too...ah, one day - perhaps! Although there is a Generic ODBC/JDBC option (like similar tools). Although, I wouldn't say they'd be a huge demand for this sort of tool in the U2 environment.

RE: [U2] and PDF [not-secure]
For quite sometime I've gotten good results with letting the UV spooler hand off to a unix script. I convert the text to postscript using postprint, then use ps2pdf to distill the PDF. Total software cost = $0... Great for reports, etc. The real question is, do you want to take what you are producing NOW and convert them to PDF format, or do you want to start producing nice, glitzy things that become PDFs?

AD[U2] Timeout and the break key.
We can disable the break key for the normal users and log them out if the hit an error conditions, but we want something to control the idle time associated with the developers as well. AD This may not be what you wanted to hear, but we wrote/sell a product called LOGMON to handle your situation. It runs at the Unix level and monitors the CPU usage of all your users (and their child processes). Logmon can then log off idle users using criteria that you control. You can vary the inactivity time by user, time of day, etc. You can control how the user is logged off. And since it's at the Unix level, it can handle all users, whether Universe or Unidata or ... an ancient COBOL program ;-) For details, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://www.logmon.com Thanks! /AD --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

Print Wizard (our product) can do that. A key question for any of these products is this: how easy is it to specify what goes into the PDF? Print Wizard gives you these options: 1. Plain text (with CRs, LFs, maybe tabs, maybe even backspace-underlining and backspace-bolding) will be auto-fit to the page. Even print jobs without formfeeds will generally be paginated correctly. 2. PCL-5 files will be interpreted and rendered to PDF. This includes HP/GL, color, images, fonts, character sets, and emulation of cartridges with barcode and Chinese capabilities. If you have a PCL file that Print Wizard DOESN'T render correctly, please email it. 3. HTML. Print Wizard handles some, but not all, HTML files. 4. Print Wizard Markup Language (PWML). This is our version, based on HTML, plus control of many things HTML doesn't address, including orientation, paper size, barcodes, precise placement, rotated text, and more. With all of these, it is also possible to add a form image (an overlay or background), in any of several file formats. Note that Print Wizard runs on a Windows platform. However, we support several protocols for routing Unix/Linux jobs to the Windows PC where PW is running. See website for more.

The perl module pdf::api2 is pretty easy to use once you get past the lack of documentation. You can do some pretty slick things with the different boxes. I feed data documents built by a BP program to a perl script which formats a nifty PDF for invoices, order confirmations and the like. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
