If it's for internal use, I'd set up my own function (or subroutine) with the one - to - one relationships between each lower case accented letter and it's upper case equivalent. If the idea is to send info to a third party, or to use in a different database within you company, be careful that:

The READ is executed each time, but if the record being read is in virtual memory, this second "read" doesn't occur at the disk level. If the file being read is relatively small (ex.: descriptions) it will probably end up in memory quick enough and not provoke performance issues. On Fri, 19

If the supposed access time for these records is rather quick, 200 records is a relatively small record set. Although there are technically more elegant ways of doing this, why cant you just stick with your proven basic subroutine call? On Mon, 3 Dec 2012 14:59:43 -, Symeon Breen wrote:

To continue along these lines, and if you want your code to be compact, if KEY.LIST were equal to RAISE(KEY.LIST) you could do this: NEW.LIST = "" SELECT KEY.LIST LOOP WHILE READNEXT UTILITY.ID DO GOSUB GET.UTILITY.RECORD IF INDEX(UTILITY.NAME,LAST.NAME,1) THEN NEW.LIST<-1> = UTILITY.ID REPEAT

If this were a dynamic file, you would have to create a new file adding the phrase 64BIT. I don't know if the phrase is valid for non-dynamic files. On Mon, 2 Jul 2012 10:20:13 -0500, Holt, Jake wrote: We are getting the message: Warning: Attempt to extend file "GJ/INV" beyond the 2 gigabyte f

Check INPUTIF, this will return a value if the input buffer has something. If after 2 minutes of checking INPUTIF you have nothing it's because the user isn't active. If you do a LOOP with INPUTIF inside be careful to put an RQM or something similar in the loop. On Tue, 27 Mar 2012 06:26:38 -0
