We have been using the ENCRYPT() function in UniVerse for at least a few years. I don't know if unidata has an equivalent? And now, we even have a two-level encryption where we have a master key that we have to decrypt to use to encrypt the data values (credit card #'s). Big sigh. On day I envis

Doesn't UniData Basic have an ENCRYPT() function? It's been in UniVerse since release 10.0, so should be in UD no later than 6.1 > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Glen > Batchelor > Sent: Wednesday, 15 February 2006 12:07 > To: u2-use

Check out my article titled "Got Crypt?" on PickSource regarding Visa CISP. There is some techno-verbage and examples of how to use the OpenSSL command line utility (*nix or Win32) to encrypt/decrypt and Base64 encode/decode any type of data for safe storage in an MV system. In order to make t

I know there's lots of other ways to do this. I was just hoping someone might have an explanation for why this way doesn't work. I have a program, call it SELECT.ACTIVITY that uses a complex set of rules and indexes to retrieve a list of records from an extremely huge transaction file. It's a nice,

As the 64 bit version of UV allows files to be twice the size of regular UV, it would behoove you to check file sizes before doing the backup. You may have to break some files down to smaller parts if the file size is over the 2 gig limit. Gordon J. Glorfield Sr. Applications Developer MAMSI

Hi Dana, I have a subroutine that does RC4 encryption. Be aware that encryption results in characters that could conflict with @FM, @VM, @SM, etc., so you'll probably want to encode the result in a character set that won't break things (eg. Base64 encoding). Contact me offlist if you're interest

A sister site will be moving from UV 9.something on Tru 64 to UV10.latest_they_can_get on Solaris 10. Using UV backup/Uv Restore seems to be indicated. Would it be best to use UVBACKUP for all universe accounts, or to use uvbackup on each account? Also, I think fnuxi/FORMAT.CONV must be run.

Not a limitation, you build your own objects. Objects after all are nothing more than subroutines that perform a specific task. You may even say that it is an advantage because you are not tied into doing what someone else has decided how something should work. You create your own. Almost every
