RE: [U2] Arev commands
Hi Ralph, I came from AREV into Universe and you're right about the screen builder process. I miss that functionality A LOT, too. The original question was about R/Basic, specifically, which is what my comment was about. I use to work for RTI before they moved the development from Bellevue, WA. I agree with you, also, that AREV is wonderful. As a side note, OI is going to be able to run AREV apps, directly, and allow you to slowly modify the UI, piece by piece. In my opinion, it's long over due, but I'm excited they are coming out with this capability. I'm excited to test it, too, as soon as I can get my hands on it. You should be able to get some direct info from their web site.

Re: [U2] Arev commands
Since we don't use the program here and it's not a product that will be supported in the future I don't think I'll be interested. I was just looking to see if there is a repository of commands from the various flavors of PICK on the net. Obviously there is not. Maybe that could be a project for the U2UG to produce a book of commands. Sort of like a language translation dictionary. I noticed that Arev uses the OSREAD statement which is similar to what is used in Unidata but Universe doesn't have it, they use READSEQ. - Original Message - From: "Don Kibbey" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Wednesday, December 14, 2005 8:19 AM Subject: Re: [U2] Arev commands I have a complete set of AREV manuals and disks for AREV OS/2.

Re: [U2] Arev commands
I've never used this syntax but according to the manual if the send expression begins with F then return all characters from the starting position until the 2nd character of the F expression is found example REC = 'ABCDEF,HIJK' A=TRIM(REC[1,'F,']) A would equal ABCDEF (i.e. until the comma) note there is also "Bx" which searches backwards I'm not aware of any on-line/pdf/etc manuals for Rev. you maybe able to do searches on www.revelation.com knowledge base section, but I dont think you'll find a single document that has the command reference manual you are looking for. fortunately I'm a packrat & have manuals going back to the 70's.
