Has anyone got a JDBC connection to UniData 8.x from Tableau working? The JDBC connection to UniData is set up and working, but Tableau can't see it. The 64-bit ODBC driver doesn't seem to communicate well with Tableau at all.  I did get somewhere with the 32-bit ODBC connection, but it's not performant. Things worked much better when accessing it through an intermediary (Microsoft Access, just to mess around with it), so perhaps Tableau can't handle the quirks of the driver (v7.241).All my experimentation has been done with Tableau desktop edition, but I do have other editions available.  I also have inquired with Tableau, but it's slow going on that front. Any help is appreciated.------------------------------Elaine LitchfieldOwnerElaine Litchfield ConsultingSan Diego CA US------------------------------

EXECUTE has an optional CAPTURING clause. I am curious about the frequency of its usage. I can think of a few workload scenarios.1. CAPTURING: Process the resulting output for some information. 2. CAPTURING: Suppress the output so it does not disrupt a terminal screen.3. CAPTURING: Phantom processes where repeated EXECUTE fill a disk with large &PH& file records.4. No CAPTURING: Phantom process where the output could prove useful if something goes awry. Expected possible failures would most likely be caught in the first scenario and logged.I assume that most instances of EXECUTE use CAPTURING for one of the cited examples. Would anyone like to share their thoughts on the fraction of EXECUTE with or without CAPTURING to the whole population of EXECUTE, or other workloads for using or ignoring the CAPTURING clause?The PHANTOM command now supports a BRIEF keyword to suppress output (except for "Messages" according to the documentation). I assume "Messages" are the kinds of errors

I have used AccuTerm in limited fashion, (text boxes and lists), in my character based systems.  I would like under the GUI AccuTerm to make the conversion behave as now.  Example from events management:  Customer demographics enter customer number or keyword which brings up a list of customers.  I can see this clearly in the DEMO examples.  Change prompt for customer demographics I invite an <O>ptions and display a little window offering options like <R>entals.  If selected it lists the customers existing rentals.  Selecting a rental the calls the rental summary screen with options.  The <B>uildings option lists buildings on the rental.  Selection of a building shows the details of the building portion of the rental, offers options, one is <I>tems which allows entry of table, chairs, etc.  I can see the in CM the forms DETAIL, LOGIN, and MAIN all in the same program.  The event management would require 7 fo

if in one sentence (or maybe 2/3) you had to answer this question, how would you answer it?why should I choose universe over unidata or unidata over universe?would love to hear answers from rocketeers ..........dougc------------------------------Doug ChancoUniverse ProgrammerSelf Registeredgraham NC US------------------------------

Hi,   I have two MV basic source tables in an account at the Universe server, let's say, account ACC_1 and source files BP_A and BP_B. I created a GitHub repository for each of them, and cloned them at my local machine.  I could successfully compile and catalog from MVVS BP_A sources, but then, when I opened BP_B folder in MVVS, I can't no longer compile from any of the tables. It keeps giving me the same error:  Compiling: Source = BP_B/SOURCE_FILE_X -----> Compilation ignored.The account to which the file belongs does not match the account connected to the server  When looking at the log, I can see that it is considering BP_B as the account instead of ACC_1.   How can I configure MVVS to be able to compile and catalog from any of the source files?  Should I have one local folder for the account, with subfolders for each source file?  Where does MVVS look for the account when compiling?  Any help appreciated  Regards  Enri

I hope this is the right place to post this ......... if not sorry anywayis there a reason uniobjects and unirpc cannot be turned on in the trail version of universe?  I understand this is to test drive the system and what not, as I am thinking of trying to sell universe with several applications (that I am developing)  but it hard to do when I cannot develop it fully.I have a c# application (developing) that can use couchbase , ms sql, mysql and I would like to add universe as the back end database (there are non production version  and in the case of mysql free versions I can use to demo the application) and then based on which the want or their price point, (how powerful a server they are willing to purchase , how many users etc .....I can recommend a database for them to use.i would LOVE to add pick as a database option (universe and jBase) but I need to be able to connect to a system to test (and develop) before I can think about offering it.  I did look into purchasing a universe

I have the PE versions of both (unidata and universe) and my VM is currently running universe, do I (or should I) spin up a new rocky linux VM to install unidata on or can I install unidata on the machine currently running universe?I guess spinning up a new VM is not a big deal but I was just curious if they both could run on the same system any advice or suggestions  appriciateddougc------------------------------Doug ChancoUniverse ProgrammerSelf Registeredgraham NC US------------------------------

Hi,  I just installed the MV Basic VS Code Extension. I could open a Git folder with Basic programs, connect to the U2 server, and compile!   But I have a problem. The source file is not BP, has another name, and every program I open is recognized as "Plain Text". I have to click on "Plain Text" and then select "Rocket MV Basic" as language.  Is there any place where I should indicate the association to all the programs in the folder?  Regards,  Enrique

HelloI want to use the FORMAT command from TCL for formatting BASIC code.  It works perfectly and formats my code with a margin of 6 spaces and indents of 3 spaces wherever it is needed.From my dim and distant past, I seem to remember being able to specify a different margin and indent, but I can't remember how to do it.There doesn't seem to be any command-line option to do this.  My recollection is that to do what I want, I need to update an item in a file with the required margin and indent (perhaps VOC?).Can anyone help me with this?Thanks.Philip------------------------------Philip EllisRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

Has anyone used AD authentication for ODBC connectivity to Unidata/Uniobjects on Redhat?Working on a project to migrate from AIX to Redhat Linux.  AD authentication for users to login via ssh to the server and run the application is working.  But a small subset of the users have ODBC connections from Excel/Access for some critical pieces.  Authenticating with a local account works, but for various reasons the goal is to eliminate local accounts on the server and have everything controlled by AD.  There's an error when connecting via ODBC that is hard to diagnose - I do see some errors in /var/log/messages that look like a process is core dumping, but nothing in the Unidata logs.Anyone doing this successfully and have hints about what made it work?------------------------------Ian McGowanPrincipal ConsultantRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

is there anything that describes the differences between universe and unidata, in particular keywords, and anything related to coding.  I am starting to look at unidata (once I get it setup) and was wondering if there were any documents specific to coding in unidata versus universe (I am going from universe to unidata).I can't imagine there being that much or difference, but I could be totally wrong.  My plan is to get it installed this week-end and then start writing some code in unidata so any advice would be appreciated.I have downloaded the unibasic reference manual as well as a few others as I begin my "experiment" of coding in unidata  (speaking of which is there not a unidata file of all the manuals like there is in universe?  I have been downloading one by one the documents I feel I will need but it would be nice to be able to download 1 file of everything.any simple "gotchas" would be welcome and a document detailing the differences would be AWESOME.  and for now my concentrat

As I've mentioned, I am on Universe, on Linux, using Accuterm. There is a format in these programs I've inherited that looks like this....FPATH='C:\\Users\\kathleenh\\Downloads\\'DOC='2022-Farm-Market-Application.pdf'PRINT CHAR(27):CHAR(2):"<":FPATH:DOC:CHAR(13)Don't really understand it, but don't need to if it works - which it does :)But what I am trying to do right now is move a doc (jpeg, xlsx, word, pdf, whatever) from either a network spot OR a c drive location to another spot within a basic program. I tried using a '<' and then a '>' for the two locations but that didn't work.My question is does anyone know how (or if possible) to use this feature (which I think is Accuterm) to move a file from one location to another?OR......What other functions / tools would work to do this? Obviously the user has to have permission to both files. Since I can do the above command to either the C drive or network drives I imagine access is not the issue or holdup - just my ignorance. I

Hi I'm currently trying to embed unidata commands in C# code - I'm aware of the U2.data.client dll available and have been using it, however the most recent .NET framework that it is recognized in is v4.8 - is there a package i could use in .NET framework v6?Just for a bit of context - I'm trying to build an API in  C# on azure that can access our Unidata accounts and present information in a somewhat rational view, my first steps would be to get some sort of C# API working through an http call.------------------------------Magdelene MuthusamyMissRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------
