RE: [UD] OPENSEQ, WEOFSEQ, CLOSESEQ
I've always just opened the file and deleted the record before the OPENSEQ OPEN 'MBP' TO F.MBP THEN FILE.NAME='customer_tm.txt' DELETE F.MBP,FILE.NAME OPENSEQ 'MBP',FILE.NAME TO F.SEQ ELSE NULL END ELSE END Mel Maresh -Original Message- From: Shawn Waldie [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 13, 2004 12:15 PM To: U2 Users Discussion List Subject: [UD] OPENSEQ, WEOFSEQ, CLOSESEQ Except for one possible inconsistency with the instructions regarding OPENSEQ, the documentation seems very straight-forward. However, I'm still missing something. My intention is to: 1) create a record (if it doesn't already exist) in a DIR-type file; 2) clear said record if data exists; 3) write "new" data to the record; and 4) close the file. The problem is that only an empty record is created if the WEOFSEQ command is executed. However, if the WEOFSEQ command is not executed, the record will not first be cleared. In other words, each time someone runs the program, the new info is appended to whatever exists. Here's my code: X.DIR = "X.HOME.WALDIES" X.FILE = "SRW_TEST_SEQ.txt" X.DELIM = "|" * MAIN * GOSUB OPEN.SEQFILE FOR I = 0 TO 9 OUTPUT.DATA = "" FOR J = 0 TO 9 BEGIN CASE CASE J # 9 OUTPUT.DATA := I:"-":J:X.DELIM CASE 1 OUTPUT.DATA := I:"-":J END CASE NEXT J GOSUB WRITE.TO.SEQFILE NEXT I CLOSESEQ FV.SEQ *~-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-~*~-~* * --- OPEN.SEQFILE: * --- PCPERFORM 'touch ':@PATH:'/':X.DIR:'/':X.FILE OPENSEQ X.DIR,X.FILE TO FV.SEQ ELSE CRT "File ":X.FILE:" in ":X.DIR:" didn't open!"

RE: How to start windows programs
You can do this with the full version of Accuterm which costs $139, Accuterm lite which costs $59 does not have this feature. This feature is now support by a terminal emulator called HotVT, at least in Wyse60 modes, which is available for $39, if cost is a consideration. Control is also better to if you want the host process to wait until the local process is finished. My host program launches the local process and then waits until it receives a return code. HotVT returns '...' when the local program is terminated. The '...' is a user defined parameter that is passed to it. Accuterm is supposed to wait for the process to terminate, but I found that it wasn't. LOOP INPUT ANS,3 IF ANS = '...'

RE: Pick AP-Pro Discs
I recently completed the conversion of an old application running on R83 to QM. QM from Ladybridge Systems was chosen primarily because of it's low price (not quite so low anymore due to the cheap dollar). Cost breakdown as follows Computer running XP Pro 600.00 6 user License QM (45 British Pounds/user) 508.00 6 copies HotVT Terminal Emulator ($39/copy) 234.00 The conversion from R83 was relatively painless. The support from the QM and HotVt has been fantastic. Performance is tremendous. The system has been extremely stable. Remote access is now via the internet and the customer has been able to eliminate 2 phones lines costing about $100 a month. The system will run on any Windows box and a 3 user system would run about $300 for QM and $120 for the emulator. Regards, Mel Maresh >-Original Message- Dear All: I would like to acquire or purchase the complete box, manual and all diskettes for an older Pick AP-Pro system or someone's retired AP-Pro system (133-166 P1 preferably). I only need 3-5 users. I think the minimum is 3. I have a new client that I want to break into the Pick world with an inexpensive application to start. I can develop their new app on my own AP-Pro yet in 2 months they will want their own system. We've explored the concepts of a W2K/D3 or U2 box and its cost would kill the deal. I want to get my foot in the door and as they grow, we can convert later. Thanks in advance. -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
