The table you are showing is not for 8859-1 ISO/IEC 8859-1 - Wikipedia There is no box in 8859-1.

Plus -n has only a passing relationship to licensing ...

For situations like this, my inclination is to test the values the user has supplied and construct a where clause dynamically based on what I find there. Thus, if the user supplies "*", simply omit that field from the where clause altogether. Not only does this allow making much more efficient...

Done the COMPILE LISTING yet? You can also do it for the program that calls this one to see if there is a transaction active at the time of the call. Other than that, I agree with the other advice you have been given. Sometimes, people think they need huge transactions out of some notion that...

Replace() is a much faster way.

The two common ways of looking at the data are an ABL program (the Progress 4GL) or SQL. But, given your apparent lack of ABL knowledge (or you wouldn't be asking the question), a third option, as Marco suggests, is DataDigger, which is ABL designed to make it easy to browse through the data...

I.e., code it the way you should and the issue doesn't arise ... :)

So that it can be used. If it is inactive, it can't be used.

You don't want *any* number separator except the decimal when providing numeric constants.

Are we talking about using persistent or superprocedures?

To followup on what James said, good progress implies encapsulation of related behavior in a procedure or object and clear passing of needed parameters between these procedures or objects, so that you can clearly trace the flow of information and know exactly where something came from and went...

RECORD-LENGTH gives you the size of the *data* in the record. On disk there is additional space consumed by the DB housekeeping information.

For each?

If you F4 within a transaction, it will roll back. So, don't do that. You need to either limit the scope of the transaction ... always a good idea ... or provide another exit mechanism which won't cause and undo. Note that it is a strong design principle that one should never have a...

Note that the .lic file is connections, which may or may not correspond to users in your license. If you have a concurrent user license, then the big question is whether your users create multiple simultaneous sessions from the same device. If they create 3 sessions, that is 3 connections in...

Have you done a COMPILE LISTING yet on on the programs in the stack?

If I remember correctly, 8859-1 has no euro symbol, but 8859-15 does.

find first is almost always wrong. If the keys provided identity a unique record, then you are sending a false signal to anyone who has to maintain the code since it appears that you want the first of a group. If the keys are not unique, then the implication is that you are treating the first...

There is always a transaction scope, whether you define it explicitly or not. It can propagate down from a higher level program, so a program that looks like it has no scope may still be within a transaction scope. One of the really big reasons to explicitly define scope is so that you can be...

You need to complete the transaction before hitting F4 or you will undo the transaction. Use COMPILE LISTING to see transaction scope.
