And, what you need to search for will be determined by the code page of your database (and how you search may be influenced by the code page of your session). The ALT0153 is not a hex pattern that is stored in the database, but a keystroke pattern for entering that character. Once entered, it...

Alt0153 is the key combination for entering the code, not the code in the code page of the database. If your database is Unicode, then the code in the DB should be U+00AE ... I think.

Assuming that this is an implementation of the game of Life that appeared in Scientific American many years ago and apropos of nothing to do with Progress, but back in the mid-70s I was part of an R&D project creating self-instructional materials and computer-simulated laboratories to teach...

Rob is on point. As written, the formatting is being done at compile time so room needs to be left for the longest possible value. If that is not what you want, compose the string in advance, clean up as needed, and display the string as a whole ... or, use put unformatted, which would be...

It just seems to me that examining 10,000 files and not actually doing anything with them is a pretty unusual requirement ... I have to wonder if there aren't better OS tools for the purpose (he says, having built similar things).

I have to wonder what you are doing that the performance of file-info is an issue ...

Did you try PUT UNFORMATTED name "|" addr[1] "|" addr[2] "|" city "|" state "|" zipcd skip.

If it matters that you have the absolute latest value at some point in your code, then read it again. In particular, if you are updating a record, read it no-lock, do any UI, read it again, check whether the original is different from the current, if the same, then commit your changes, if not...

Did you look in the license file? In general, neither is going to expire. Your maintenance may expire and there are some special kinds of licenses like the old PSDN licenses which expire, but in general database and software licenses don't expire unless they are SaaS.

I have heard, over the years, of shops that didn't allow e-mail, so no PEG( when it existed) and shops that don't allow browsing, but the idea of allowing ProgressTalk and not Progress Communities is like expecting you to touch type in mittens.

Embedded nulls?

You would have to do a huge amount of work to just duplicate what is available in off the shelf tools. You might ask this question on Progress Communities ... I think there are more big shops there which are more likely to use such tools.

Point out to your IT chief that, not only will it cost him a lot more to get an internal solution (your time), he will keep paying and paying and paying for future research tasks which would otherwise be free using ProTop. Not using it is silly.

Not true today in this very forum! :{

One might note that "batch" and "CHUI" are mutually exclusive ... :)

Why are you trying to do this? There is no point in USING pointing to self. Also not sure what you are trying to accomplish with the compile code.

It would be interesting to know where the block label was relative to the FOR EACH...

Note also that the password stored in the database cannot be decrypted to a plain text password. The validation is between encrypting what the user entered and what is stored. So, what you probably should do is to have a procedure which sends the user a new temporary password and, as James...

For a reasonably modern version of Progress, which you have, you really want to be using PDSOE.

One might say that a -L that big is a sure sign of code that needs fixing...
