This is so great!! "the WHEN-BY.EXP connection was removed a few releases back."
On my 10.0.16 I live under the tyranny of the old regime. My shorts have thawed . . . Wait, now they've frosted over again: I'm reading release notes for 10.1 & 10.2 and I don't see anything about WHEN/BY.EXP. Did I miss an important doc? I admit I haven't read everything yet. Where & how was I supposed to find this out? cds P.S. My comment about sorting by id before mv.attribute still stands. All else being equal, if you don't are about the order, lump all the select list entries for the same record together for the sake of subsequent use of the resultant list. Under the new regime I suppose the proper syntax is: SELECT BIGFILE WHEN MV.ATTRIBUTE = "xyz" (or whatever the criteria are.) -----Original Message----- From: Ron Hutchings The comment about the WHEN-BY.EXP connection was removed a few releases back. Now, if you use WHEN it will pick off only the multi-value that matches and the rest do not display. ______________________________________________________________ From: "Stevenson, Charles" Without a doubt: SELECT BIGFILE BY @ID BY.EXP MV.ATTRIBUTE ----------------- It has always frosted my shorts that in order for WHEN to kick in, you need BY.EXP even if you don't care about the sort order. ------- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
