There are two truths I live by - Never start a land war in Africa and PICK (English, retrieve) is HORRIBLE at creating reports! Having moved into a position at a company using Universe, they somehow didn't know that they need a report writer package and have been coding Excel reports through FTD. This is very time consuming and not particularly good at reports. In the past I have used Crystal reports, PHP, ODBC, etc.  Can I get you alls opinion what is the most straightforward, most robust report writer out of Universe (PICK)? Ideally one not overly expensive ;) Thanks! Kathleen------------------------------Kathleen HambrickProgrammer at Colwell------------------------------

I am new to accuterm, about a year now, and am still struggling with trying to understand the pieces I need in place to have a graphical accuterm screen display on the internet. I've been told repeatedly that its possible and functioning with my release of accuterm8. Can anyone share with me even a static screen accuterm display on the web? Even just a box that says 'You are here.'There are obviously pieces I need for the web address to access my accuterm display but I don't even know what questions to ask....Anyone?------------------------------Kathleen HambrickProgrammer at Colwell------------------------------

I was exploring our use of the STATUS statement in a simple BASIC program that we use to show info on a file. There wre 3 date/time pairs: Last Access Last Modification Last Status Last access shows a date from years ago, so it "feels" more like a creation date.  Last Status and Last Modification show identical values. What are these supposedly tell me? Nelson------------------------------Nelson SchrothpresidentC3CompleteShop LLCHarrison OH US------------------------------

I'm in the very beginning stages of designing/developing a program that will create a file or files that can be opened/imported by Word to display multiple tables like these (screenshot from a word document): I can handle part that has to calculate these details. However, i'm not sure what my options are for generating a file that can be imported/read by Word. It appears that Word can handle XML documents, so I'm wondering if that would be worth researching. Our current process is very labor intensive and requires a lot of hands-on, so ideally, my program would generate the file(s), and Word could then open and display the info seen above with minimal manual massaging. Any ideas would be appreciated.------------------------------Shawn Waldieenterprise application developerRocket Forum Shared AccountLos Angeles CA US------------------------------

I have developed several screens using the SCRB command in the past but when I went to see some current documentation, the page cannot be found.  It is still listed in the QM Commands.  Has this been removed?  Has it been replaced by something else?

Hi Guys Stupid question here but .... I have a "simple" piece of code to test the commit statement which has left me somewhat surprised by its functionality.I'm probably asking too much if at line 6 when the pgm (stops) I delete the file TEMP from another terminal and then allow the code to continue.I then get (unexpectantly)  I would have expected the commit line to execute and report the error???Am I asking too much?

In AE and AccuTerm, if I use a '!' to start a comment, the editor ignores that line, leaving where I put it as the author but it does align the '*' comments based on the options set. In the MVVS editor, the "indent.commentLine" option seems to be treating both '!' and '*' comments the same. If it's set to 'true' the comment gets indented the same as the previous line. If it's set to 'false', the comment line(s) are returned to the left margin. Is there a way with the current settings available to retain the capability of '! comments remaining in the position determined by the developer? Below are examples: indent.commentLine set to true, before Format with Rocket MV BASIC       EQUATE CUSTOMER.SUFFIX TO 5       * !******** ! This is the end !******** indent.commentLine set to 'true', after Format with Rocket MV BASIC        EQUATE CUSTOMER.SUFFIX TO 5       *       !********       !

I am working on an RPM that will install unidata, so as I start down this journey, are there any gotchas other who have gone down a similar path that anyone would care to share?there will be 2 types of installations .....1. on a system WITHOUT unidata installed2. an upgrade of system with unidataI am going to use the parameter file to automate the installation in both cases and when doing #2 I will stop unidata  before preforming the upgrademy main question is about the license file (while developing I will be usings the PE version of unidata so no license issue) but in both cases how do I handle the license?1. do they have to enter  it manually?2. is there a way to "move" the license from version 8.x.x to 8.2.4?also on #2 is there an easy way to tell if unidata is installed and running, I suppose I could look for the unidata daemon to see if its running, but if the system is stopped since I do not know what version of unidata is installed is there something I can look for to see if un

Greetings all! We are currently running 11.3.4 on AIX 7.2.  In order to mitigate the newly discovered security issue with unirpc, we have the option of upgrading to the appropriate builds of 11.3.5 or 12.2.1.  Since upgrading involves a great deal of application and integration regression testing, we are considering jumping to 12 instead of staying on 11 now, and then having to jump to 12 later.All of the listings for version 12 in the product matrix have alerts associated with them, listing an issue related to using unmasked kills on UV processes.For the user base - is anyone currently running 12.2.1.xxx on AIX?  If so, have you encountered any issues related to this alert?For the Rocketeers - with the new memory buffer design, is this alert a permanent fixture now, or is there anything in the works to remediate the issue in the near future?To everyone - while this alert is the main cause of concern for us at this time, has anyone discovered any other issues in terms of application co

Hi,I'm trying to use U2 Web Designer to create RBO's. The accounts are on an AIX server. I can successfully attach to the host and see the accounts. I can also successfully enable accounts for WebDE. It's when I click on "U2 Web DE Elements" and I'm asked for a password it always comes back with an "Access is denied error" I've tried the rbadmin/redback combination (This works elsewhere as I can log on to the admin server with it) and several OS users but nothing seems to work. I first tried this several months ago and gave up out of sheer frustration but now I really need to have a look at this.Everything else is working well. I also found that I had to modify permissions on the $UVHOME/UV.ACCOUNT file to create a new account through designer. Perhaps I need some correct permissions set somewhere else.Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong? What other options for a valid username and password are there?Designer version 5.3.0, build 3425Universe - 11.3.2WebDE - 5.3.0ThanksAndrew---------

Hi All,We are in a high volume environment running Unidata on AIX. I have a question about the new option.Is anyone useing it? Is there any speed-up in real-world situations?We have a very old code-base. In what situations would this, perhaps, speed some SELECT quieries up? (Or slow them down)Has anyone turned it on and noticed any change, good or bad.We are contemplating turning it on, and are curious about other's experience. Did you test it, etc?Thank you for any feedback or information.Best,Rick Brown :version     Module Name         Version   Licensed UniData RDBMS............ 8.2     Yes ------------------------------Rick BrownSysadminRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

Hello everyone,Firstly, I have to say that this is my first experience of attempting to use UOPY so please forgive any obvious mistakes on my part.   The issue which I am looking for some guidance on is as follows:I can log into Universe via an ssh terminal, issue command such as:SELECT CDC.CARD WITH ID = "1234567890123456" TO 1LIST CDC.CARD CARDNUM FROM 1This selects one record into list number one and outputs the ID and CARDNUM values.   CARDNUM Is a calculated field and is decrypted / displayed correctly when the operations are performed as above.However, when using UOPY, I replicate the above using something similar to the below:cmd=uopy.Command(f'LIST {filename} CARDNUM FROM {list_number}',ses) cmd.run()Inspecting the cmd object shows that there's an error in decrypting the value, with the full error message as follows:error:06065064:digital envelope routines:EVP_DecryptFinal_ex:bad decrypt:crypto/evp/evp_enc.c:570I understand that the Command objects should be

Greetings, all! I used to know this answer, but I haven't worried about it in so long I can't remember.Our data is masked with extra decimal positions.  For example, 1.35 may be masked with 2 decimal places and stored as 135.  When using this data for output, which is better performance-wise - OCONV or dividing by 100?Thank you!------------------------------Brian Paige------------------------------

Hi Guys, I needed to dump the contents of a transaction file for our Auditors today and a simple retrieve report should have been the simple solution, as it only need sorting by date with no calcs, and all the dictionary's already setup, and probably not needed again..... However, because of the 32,767 (ROW) page length limit the .CSV hold file with 680,000 rows of data, had many extra "page breaks" to dispense with. I was reluctant to write a one off program, so sorted it in the VOC paragraph, that produced the report, so the Auditors are happy, but  it took me longer than in really should have because of the 32,767 SETPTR limit. So does anyone know why we have such an arbitrary number as the limit for SETPTR and does anyone know of a simple override aside writing a one off program  to poke it directly into &HOLD& rather than using a retrieve report?? Also another thought, the SETPTR command displays your current output settings so these values must be stored for your current
