Thanks Mats. Actually I simply changed the association in the dictionaries
to be:
Dictionary List: DICT CHANGES Prepared on: 07:03:38am 01 Dec 2005
Dict Name.. Type # Col-Heading Field-Definition. Conversion.. Format
Assoc...
ADATE D4 ACTDATE D2 9R
M AS_4
ACTIONS D7 ACTIONS TAKEN 63T
M AS_4
BYS D8 ACTIONS BYTUSERS;C;;1 20L
M AS_4
OACTIONSI ACTIONS TAKEN @RECORD7 30T
M AS_4 (from AS_4A)
and left the phrases alone. This is a bit counter-intuitive though. It's
as though there's no fixed relationship between attribute 7 and the phrase.
In fact, I changed the dictionaries to be:

Assoc.
ADATE D4 ACTDATE D2 9R M X
ACTIONS D7 ACTIONS TAKEN 63TM X
BYS D8 ACTIONS BYTUSERS;C;;1 20LM X
OACTIONSI ACTIONS TAKEN @RECORD7 30TM X
and left the phrases alone as (no 'X' phrase) :

This is the result of the query:

Martin: The ACTIONS and OACTIONS are synonyms for the same field, so
presently ADATE(4) would have a C;8;7 in it while ACTIONS(7), OACTIONS(7),
and BYS(8) would have a D;4 in it. This is one of the painful (and oldest)
nuisances with the U2 products, where multiple dictionaries need to be
created for different output scenarios.
Thanks again,
Bill

Subject: Re: [U2] Associated MVs
Hi Bill,
Is it possible to assocate the same dictionary item (field
definition)
to more than one association phrase? I'm doing some
conversion work
and
there
are several associations that include some of the same dictionaries.
How can this ever be necessary? If item A has a value by
value relationship with item B and item B is similarly
related to item C, what situation can exist where the values
of A and C are not related in this same way?
