I can honestly say that the diversity of experiences and people who comprise this listserv is amazing. And I've found the shared knowledge to be invaluable. As one who has not been immersed in the U2 environment for an extended period of time, there is one item that serves as a continued source of frustration. And it's exactly what Phil mentions below...sparse documentation. Not only for new stuff, but also for what I consider to be general items. More than once I have had a problem and through research, found that a PDF containing possibly pertinent information could be obtained from the IBM web site. Knowing it was there did me absolutely no good at all. Because my connection to the U2 world is through our software vendor, IBM has consistently refused to acknowledge/honor any request that I've made for information. And based upon the feedback I have gotten at times from the vendors support center, they (the support center) has a equ! ally difficult time extracting U2 information from IBM. And it's not like there are selves full of books on U2 that I could turn to for research...at least not that I've seen. I can go to any major book store and find two or three selves of books on MS SQL and NONE on U2. This was particularly frustrating when I was first getting started with U2 four years ago. How could there be no books? Regardless of the bookstores I've visited over the years, the results has always been the same. I have since learned that, outside of spending thousands of dollars to go to vendor sponsored training classes (and receiving their training books), the best way to learn about things in this environment is through the listservs...word of mouth...trial and error. For one who has spent a considerable amount of time (with past systems I've supported) over the years plowing through technical manuals learning the nuances of how to best work with a product, being denied that information is very ! frustrating. The only consolation are listserves such as this one. The U2 industry is ill served by what I perceive to be an informational void relative to the product. And the tragedy is that this is a really good family of products. Very worthy of recognition along with the other major players in the RDBMS arena. Something should be done to free up this log-jam. And the first thing that would be really helpful is if IBM allowed both their direct customers AND the clients of those customers (such as myself), direct access to all aspects of the critical information contained upon their web site. Maybe then people will start writing books about U2.

We look at how things are being done elsewhere and say, Pick does it better, we aren't going to do that. The problem with this approach is that everyone else is adopting these standards and using them. We are going to be left further behind if we don't start using some of the technologies available to us. . And this is where this list breaks down in that a lot of the new features IBM are building into the product are not used/discussed and the documentation is VERY, VERY sparse. So people like myself and a few others are left to trial and error techniques to implement these new technologies because we HAVE to talk to the outside world and people expect some sort of standard method to do this.

Your EDI headers and detail are open for viewing. Seeing that you're in the trucking business someone might find it worth their time to watch your packets or maybe even make modifications in order to redirect or intercept shipments. No, not paranoia, it happens. In your case where you could be sending data from the client or the server, I'd recommend using cURL, which has consistent cross-OS syntax (unlike Windows FTP and *nix FTP which are different) as well as security via OpenSSL. I've used FTP from AccuTerm and I use AccuTerm for a lot of other purposes, but there are limits to what we can do from the client, especially in a dynamic environment. Also, FTP itself is not a guaranteed protocol. Any code you have written around it should be able to recognize and handle faults. As one simple example, FTP may be blocked at any time by updates to Windows Firewall or other firewall/anti-virus software or hardware. A new PC may not be able to FTP out. Someone doing work from home may have completely different network conditions. Unless you capture the results of connections and return them to the server, you may not know when errors happen. In the trucking business you need to ensure that your transactions are received and acknowledged. This is why EDI has traditionally moved through Value-Add Networks. They are expensive but they do manage transactions effectively. If you don't use a VAN then be sure to code for faults, and record successful transactions yourself to answer those we didn't get it issues.

Shortsighted maybe, but we've been happy for 55 years in a single time zone! Does anyone have any suggestions for us? We also have drivers who cross time zones now...will clock in at one time zone and clock out in another.

[U2] Re: XML Issue
Thanks for your help. I'm not opening it with any editor. I do the HTTP Call to the URL the vendor gives me. When I look at the RESPDATA (response data) just with a CRT during the download, that's when I see the structure I'm referring to. (I have to remove the 'standalone' or remove the heading entirely in order for the xdom parser to even receive it.) I remove line feeds after the XDOM parser has done it's thing before I write to my U2 file. What was throwing me was that I suddenly had to add the extra steps of altering the heading and removing line feeds. I've downloaded so many xml docs (and I do this all directly through UniBasic using the extentions) that I got used to seeing it a certain way. Another difference I noted in the URL response header that worked w/o the extra steps is content type text/xml and on the new URL it's shown as content type text/html. I can make it work. It just worries me that I don't know exactly why I needed to blank out the header and manage line feeds.. thanks again, Nancy From: Stuart.Boydell at spotless.com.au Subject: RE: [U2] Re: XML Issue Newsgroups: gmane.comp.db.u2.general Date: 2006-02-03 00:00:14 GMT (18 hours and 57 minutes ago) Nancy, I am presuming that you are opening the document using a text editor and then saving it to an operating system file, not a U2 file?? XML is `structure' agnostic. The layout of an XML document when opened in a text editor (for example) is unaffected by the encoding of the document. What you are seeing is probably just the difference in how the line feeds are represented in your text editor. If you need to manipulate the XML before writing it, use a specific XML editor like XMLSpy. Otherwise a text editor like EditPlus can figure out your linefeeds and is also excellent for dealing with XML. If you want to view the document with `pretty' layout, open the document with a web browser (Firefox, Internet Explorer etc).

The attribute is optional and if you aren't using a DTD, leave it out. If you don't know what a DTD is then you probably aren't using one - they're a way to validate the structure of an XML document but they're becoming less common these days and have largely been replaced by xml schemas (.xsd). Also, be aware that UniVerse without NLS uses an ISO-8859-1 based character set. For example, XML documents generated by UniVerse which included a character greater than char(128) (eg Cafi blend coffee) will be misinterpreted by most XML parsers if the encoding attribute is set to UTF-8. Try using the following header: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=iso-8859-1?

[U2] Re: XML Issue
When I replace 'ISO-8859-1 standalone = yes' with 'UTF-8' then I get a mostly successful download of the xml document. There is a problem with a line return in my file after parsing thru the XDOM. Is there something I can do with a map to resolve this? It downloads in a garbled way with the 'ISO-8859-1 standalone = yes' and won't parse at all Yet to look at at it with a browser it is a valid xml document.

My email is currently blocking list mail for SOME reason... I just read your answer in the new feed at the website. Perhaps the standalone = yes is the issue?

FYI ISO-8859-1 is the old standard which is now no longer developed as they have moved to UTF-8/16, but it should still work fine... Are you on NT or *nix ?

Could the problem be the difference of the type of encoding used in the first resp header versus the second? Does your system which UniVerse is running on support ISO-8859-1 character set?

Maybe it is just the way you have cut and pasted but the new xml does not have the closing /VEHICLE and /VEHICLEPOSITIONS tags. Yes. It was just a cut and paste...

[U2] XML Issue
I've got a new URL to download some XML data and although the xml data is supposed to be nearly identical to what I was getting previously I am getting errorred out.

I don't know if it's a problem at the vendors website or a problem with mapping...(this is new programming on their part). When I use the URL to access it directly (not through UniVerse) I can see it as a regular XML document so everything appears to be as it should on their end. We are using the latest version of UniVerse...

[U2] Re: Problem on XMAPReadNext
Universe 10.1.11 (Windows 2003) I'm not getting any errors returned on the XMAPOpen But there is no data being read into 'record' on the XMAPReadNext: Status = XMAPReadNext(Xfile, someFILE, Record) Would that indicate a problem with the map ???

Re: [U2] Just checking!
Well since you asked, I'm having trouble with loading XML into a database: Error with XMAPOpen(). The error description and code: -- Error desc: The document named '' did not exist. Error code: 5 -- I do have a map in the XML file - I'm assuming it's saying it can't find the map. I have used the xmldom api successfully once before but it's a struggle.

And here's where the conflict begins. When looking through a big program, I much prefer numeric labels in order with comments vs. alphanumeric labels. With numeric labels in order you find 1800 and if you're looking for 2000 you know to look farther down, 1000, go up. With alpha labels if you find SELECT.FILE and are looking for UPDATE.FILES, you have nothing but experience to know whether to look up or down from there. Numeric labels are good. Not ordering or commenting them is bad. And not putting comments around all labels to make them more easily distinguished from the rest of the program is near unforgiveable. -K -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Allen E.
