Lew, The DataStation is meant to make file
handling as simple and straightforward as possible so a lot of VB’s arcane
requirements just don’t apply.
If you need to access another file, you can open another DataStation
object with, say, Dim
D1 as New DataStation And then use: D1.Open
“filename”, ftWhatever -----Original Message----- If I want to write a loop for a
Meditech Magic script to look for EOF, I do something like this While Not EOF(1) Where 1 was used to open the file Open FileName As #1 and is a unique identifier of the
file (you don’t have two files open at the same time as 1) Now, in C/S I need to write a loop
using the new DataStation, so the code generated by BWS is D.Open_ “C:\SOMEFILE” ,
ftFixedLength where ftFixedLength is system
defined as the number 2. Assuming the same logic is used for the While While Not EOF(ftFixedLength) doesn’t this mean that if I
wanted to have 2 fixed length files open at the same time (say, transferring
data to two file at the same time, that I would have to change the
tool-generated ftFixedLength of the second file that I want to open to some
other number? I just want to clarify that I
understand the use of ftFixedLength in the D.Open_ statement, since both files
could be fixed length files, but the number has to be unique. This may be a
stupid question, but I just want to be sure that I understand. TKs for indulging me, |
