We are in a process of migrating our servers and we are strugging with a mail problem. Old server: windows server 2012R2, Progress 11.2, Outlook 2013 New server: windows server 2019 Data Center, Progress 11.7, Outlook 2019 What we do is running a progress program via the task scheduler to save...

You could also take a look at GitHub - rodolfoag/4gl-excel: Library to create an Excel file from Progress 4GL where this is already solved. I used this to create the dump-to-excel in DataDigger (code here: DataDigger/wDump.w at master · patrickTingen/DataDigger starting at line 1594)

Just in time I managed to wrap up DataDigger in a shiny wrapping paper and put it for you all under the Chrismas tree. Now it is up to you all to unwrap it and be thankful for the gift. Unlike normal gifts, it is perfectly accepted to report it when you find something that is not to your taste...

The dataset definition looks like this: DEFINE TEMP-TABLE OrderToCreate NO-UNDO XML-NODE-NAME "orderToCreate" FIELD OrderId AS CHARACTER XML-NODE-TYPE "ELEMENT". DEFINE TEMP-TABLE OrderRows NO-UNDO XML-NODE-NAME "OrderRows" FIELD Order_recid AS RECID XML-NODE-TYPE...

We are trying to create a call to a webservice. I managed to create a program, based on the documentation from bprowsdldoc. It compiles and runs, but the guys at the receiving end of the WS tell me the request is not valid. The dataset I send is different than what they expect. They sent me an...

Something like this? DEFINE VARIABLE hWin AS HANDLE NO-UNDO. DEFINE VARIABLE hProc AS HANDLE NO-UNDO. hWin = SESSION:FIRST-PROCEDURE. REPEAT: IF hWin:NAME = 'alg\menu.w' THEN RETURN. hProc = hWin. hWin = hWin:NEXT-SIBLING. DELETE OBJECT hProc NO-ERROR. IF NOT VALID-HANDLE(hWin) THEN...

We have an application that is a mix of ADM-1 (yes, ADM one) and non-adm windows on OE11.2. We want to add some functionality that allows the user to jump back to the main menu, regardless of where they are in the application. We would like to solve this in a generic way. We already...

Although I support the idea of using a file-based solution, for completeness, I would like to add that one disadvantage of a file-based solution is that you will have to do some additional backing up. If you save the files in the database, the db will grow and backups will take longer, but at...

I also found this KB entry to be valuable. You can use MESSAGE System.Globalization.CultureInfo:CurrentCulture:DateTimeFormat:ShortDatePattern /* dd/MM/yyyy */ System.Globalization.CultureInfo:CurrentCulture:DateTimeFormat:DateSeparator /* / */ VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX. To find date format and...

No this is not for DataDigger. Every now and then I need to do some other work as well ;) Cross platform is not a requirement since this client solely runs on Windows machines. I looked at powershell as well but that solution does not lead me anywhere since it is also regionally dependent...

As I was trying to read all files in a folder with their attributes, it occurred to me that there should be a faster way to do this than examining each file in the folder with FILE-INFORMATION and then pulling the attributes like last modification date and file size from it. So I did an...

Ouch, the "printed copies" ended up in the paper bin over ten years ago ....

I am currently working on application that has large parts still written in ADM-1 as well. Have you ( @Cecil ) found some documentation? At the PUG in Dublin I talked to Shelley Chase about this. She promised me to look for existing electronic documentation on ADM-1 but I have not heared...
