Put the temp-table in a persistent procedure or class and provide methods to operate on it. Much cleaner.

There is a Syteline forum.

And, it should be noted that a transaction *is* active and anything you do inside that block *will* get undone if the transaction is not completed. You may not see this because there is no permanent record, but any undo variables, for example, will be returned to their starting state.

What is not accomplished by assigning the trimmed value to the database field?

Note also that the DECIMALS property of the field will determine how many decimals to the right can be assigned, regardless of the display format.

This is clearly a question about a specific software product. You should post it in the corresponding board.

True enough ... but testable. I just think that people forget about work-tables these days, but they are a good fit for some use cases.

By the same token, if the above satisfies your need, you could use a WORK-TABLE instead of a TEMP-TABLE.

Did you try just Break by Col1 by Col9 Why are you breaking on all of those columns?

Oh, and there is no trademark symbol in ibm850 either. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_page_850

8859-1 has no trademark symbol ... which might be contributing to your problem. I suggest you dump that record and look at what is in it with a hex editor. I am also curious about what you are doing in that code. You initialize trademark as "(ä)". This is three valid characters in 8859-1...

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.
