Mecki we use BCP You just execute it as a TCL command to the underlying OS command line (DOS or Unix) from your BASIC routine, and tell it to write the output to a file and error log, sleep a few seconds then read the resulting files.
You might want to stomp the files before you start so you're not reading the previous output. And if you're doing this multi-user on demand you can put the user Login as part of the file name. -----Original Message----- From: Mecki Foerthmann <mec...@gmx.net> To: u2-users <u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org> Sent: Fri, Jun 7, 2013 6:54 am Subject: Re: [U2] How do I get the U2 Metadata Manager to work I know, tried it and it doesn't work on our setup because BCI only seems to work if the OS on the UD server is 32 bit. We were told it didn't matter so they built a Redhat Linux 64 bit virtual server and put UD in that. Now if I try to connect trough BCI I only get memory errors. AFAIK EDA is only for connecting from SQL Server to U2 so no good for what I want to do.
