RE: [U2] Creating a file in a different account
You could try changing CREATE.FILE to a Remote verb and adding your own wrapper. That way you can extend the syntax of the command and add VOC updates to suit your requirements.

RE: [U2] Creating a file in a different account
No. But you don't need it. CREATE.FILE will work with the full path. So the instructions are similar: 1. create a pointer to the VOC in the remote account 2. CREATE.FILE fullpath\filename etc. 3. create an item in the remote VOC to point to the file 4. If required, delete local VOC item pointing at remote file (DELETE VOC filename) which will warn it's synonym. hth Colin Alfke Calgary Canada -Original Message- From: Jeffrey Butera > There is not a version of this for UniData is there?!?

If you copy the VOC entry, you may wish to remove the absolute path references and make it relative, otherwise, if you ever move the account, the VOC entry will break. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Thomas Derwin Sent: Friday, May 16, 2008 11:36 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: RE: [U2] Creating a file in a different account Unidata's CREATE.FILE command allows you to specify the directory path.

Re: [U2] Creating a file in a different account
$UDTBIN/udfile is NOT for creating files in other accounts in UniData. It can be used to see if a file is flagged as Recoverable or to set/unset the recoverable file bit (with the database down or up with RFS off). In UniData, you can specify a path to a remote directory in the command line. This particular test happens to have been done in 7.2 beta on Windows, but this has been available for earlier releases. Current UniData home is C:\IBM\ud72\. Current working directory is C:\IBM\ud72\wallytest. : :CREATE.FILE C:\IBM\ud72\demo\REMOTE_TEST 11,1 Create file C:\IBM\ud72\demo\D_REMOTE_TEST, modulo/1,blocksize/1024 Hash type = 0 Create file C:\IBM\ud72\demo\REMOTE_TEST, modulo/11,blocksize/1024 Hash type = 0 Added "@ID", the default record for UniData to DICT C:\IBM\ud72\demo\REMOTE_TEST. : :AE VOC REMOTE_TEST Create file D_AE_COMS, modulo/1,blocksize/1024 Hash type = 0 Create file AE_COMS, modulo/3,blocksize/1024 Hash type = 0 Added "@ID", the default record for UniData to DICT AE_COMS.

RE: [U2] Creating a file in a different account
Unidata's CREATE.FILE command allows you to specify the directory path. So you could replace the mkdbfile commands in steps 3 and 4 with CREATE.FILE DICT /dir/subdir/FILENAME mod,sep and CREATE.FILE DATA /dir/subdir/FILENAME mod,sep In step 5, copy VOC FILENAME to the remote VOC and optionally delete it from the current VOC Hope this helps, Tom Derwin >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 05/16/08 12:30 PM >>> There is not a version of this for UniData is there?!? > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian Leach > Sent: Friday, May 16, 2008 4:35 AM > To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org > Subject: RE: [U2] Creating a file in a different account > > Bjorn > > You can call out to the mkdbfile executable in the > $UVHOME\bin directory. > > mkdbfile filepath type modulus separation > > Depending on how you want to do this, here is a suggestion: > > 1.

RE: [U2] Creating a file in a different account
Bjorn
You can call out to the mkdbfile executable in the $UVHOME\bin directory.
mkdbfile filepath type modulus separation
Depending on how you want to do this, here is a suggestion:
1. Create a Q pointer to the remote VOC
2. Open the Q pointer and get the path (use Status<27> and strip out the
/VOC at the end)
3. Call mkdbfile to create the data file in that path.
4. call mkdbfile to create the dict file in that path as D_name
5. Write a new file pointer to the remote VOC.
