Variable pointers are stored as ien_;_global root
Why not use VPE to list the pointers?
I want a list of all record instances (i.e. actual records contianing
a pointer) of a pointer to a given IEN, that I can then act upon
progromatically. VPE just lists files that could potentially point to
given file. Plus, I could not act programatically upon the list.

Greg,
That is the info I needed. I had overlooked that section of the
manual. Thanks for pointing it out.

The HLO software has already been released as patch HL*1.6*126. Though it was released as a patch to the HL7 1.6

Well, you know how to identiffy the files pointing to a given file (obviously), and so you need to scan these files for records having the given pointer value. But it sounds like you're already well into coding a solution.Kevin Toppenberg [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

Isn't this a fairly modest project in Mumps to $Order through these nodes
and then through each of the files. Of course you need a complete list of
all of the bad entries/IENs that are in file 50.

Yes, that's where they're found. I'm not 100% that variable pointers create "PT" nodes, but I believe they do.James Gray [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

You need to be a bit careful using the PT
xref as it can be inaccurate. Try this:
1) Create a pointer type field in a file
2) Look at the PT xref in the target (pointed to) file
for a reference to the source (pointed from) file. It should be there.
3) Change the field datatype to

The Check/Fix DD option does work
nicely. We run this against the entire range of files to ensure things
are clean. Probably not a bad idea to do this to the FOIA database.
Im not aware of any untoward side effects of doing so.
Repointing entries is even more complex
than depicted here
