I added an inactive index (DATE-PART-LINE) online for a table (INVHIST). I then compiled programs that used INVHIST but didn't reference DATE-PART-LINE. When I ran those compiled programs, I received the following error: Index 'DATE-PART-LINE' of table 'INVHIST' is not active. (16488) Why...

I have two classes: maze_util and point_util (see below). A maze_util contains a temp table (tt) of point_util instances stored as Progress.Lang.Object. In maze_util:getTestValue, I want to find a tt record by looking up the x and y values of the tt's point. I tried to do this by CASTing...

How do you change the Data Dictionary display from the first mode to the second (see pictures)? I think you have to use a startup parameter, but I can't remember what it is.

According to this article, it's not possible to change a field's extent once you commit a database. Is this still true in 11.7.3?

OpenEdge documentation recommends archiving auditing data separately from production databases. I'd like to get some clarification on the reasons why. (Context: Our production databases are 4.8 GB, and our archive database is 10 GB. We are not legally bound to use auditing; for us, it serves as...

The OpenEdge documentation says the following: However, it seems like PROUTIL AUDITARCHIVE doesn't give you the choice to overwrite the existing audit archive (abd). In my cronjob script, I ran the following: yes | proutil /users/mf/live/db/mffg1 -C auditarchive -directory...

Is it true that changing the description of a table or field is not allowed while its database is in multi-user mode? If so, I'd like to understand why. If users can change the format of existing fields online, then why can't they change descriptions?

Our auditing tables take up almost 10GB, twice as large as the rest of our databases. I want to figure out where all this data is coming from. Is there a way to find out how much space it takes to store auditing information for tables and their fields? For example, if I audit twenty tables, can...
