Thanks Don. I understand about being too busy to respond, been having the same problem.
You answered my main question, which was if you were able to get the ReadList method to work. I tried exactly what you have there (except in VB), but no success. When I step through the code in the debugger, I get to the line that is the equivalent of your uvTmp = uvsl.ReadList(); The debugger shows the list of id's for uvsl.ReadList but when I execute the step to assign it to uvTmp, uvTmp is empty, and uvsl.ReadList is empty also!. No error is thrown. Not sure what's going on there. I haven't switched over to UO.Net yet though. So I think I'll drop this until I start using UO.Net.

Here's a snippet of code form the very project that is currently taking up all my time. The array logic was stolen right out of the .net developers guide... ............... This is just a section of code, this won't compile as is............... string [] lRecIDArray ; ArrayList lRecIDList = new ArrayList(20000); StringBuilder lStrValue = new StringBuilder(); UniDynArray uvTmp = uSession.CreateUniDynArray(); // select a file, here I'm just getting everything uvsl.Select(uvfVENDOR); // read the whole list into a unidynarray, I happen to know this file is not very big so it's ok. uvTmp = uvsl.ReadList(); // create array of Record IDs for(int Index = 0; Index < uvTmp.Dcount(); Index++) { string s = uvTmp.Extract(Index).ToString(); if (s.Length > 0){ lRecIDList.Add(s); } } // this is the part obtained from the manual. lRecIDArray = new string[lRecIDList.Count]; lRecIDList.CopyTo(0,lRecIDArray,0,lRecIDList.Count); // read records using array of record ids // this part is fast, get all the stuff you want right now UniDataSet lSet = uvfVENDOR.ReadRecords(lRecIDArray); int iCnt = 0; char uvVM = Convert.ToChar(253); char SPACE = Convert.ToChar(32); foreach (UniRecord uvVendor in lSet) { uvTmp = uvVendor.Record; // extract and process the data string tmp = uvTmp.Extract(1).ToString(); // the rest is snipped... endendend -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Victor St Clair Sent: Monday, November 29, 2004 1:28 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [U2] Uniobjects.NET speed/performance I've had the same experience, using a select loop in a list runs very slowly, and was planning to try this same approach. I tried to use ReadList method of the Slist object as documented in the UniObjects manual, but haven't gotten it to work yet. Did you use the ReadList or did you fill the array by repeating listobject.Next()? I'm still on UniObject 6, working with UniData 6. If I just do a listobject.Select(fileobject) then it processes fast enough. But if I execute a command to create a select list and then loop through it, the performance gets progressively worse as the record count increases. I'd appreciate any example you might be able share.

I fixed that by reading the entire list into an array and then looping through the array. I've read on this list that there is an updated uniobjects.dll available, but my VAR was not able to locate it?!? I really don't understand why IBM does not just post the developers tools as a public download. You really can't do much with them unless you already have a licensed database so why the hassle?
