>We are listening...and quietly making our plans for PowerHouse 4GL 8.4 :-)
Running before you can walk ? When's 8.3 (for VMS) shipping ?
What platform are you referring to ?
Externals for Quiz & QTP would be good, although if you have that capability
(to write 3gl code) you can do it now, & interface to PH thru subfiles if
necessary.
----------
My approach to the original problem would be:
Either:
1. Quiz to generate a subfile of offending records.
QTP to substitute 1 or more characters, & write a subfile of still
offending records.
A DCL (shell) script to rerun the QTP & rename the subfiles until the
subfile was empty.
Or:
2. Quiz/3gl or pure 3gl.
----------
Never seen Zebra printers. We use the Eltron LP2242 - cheap (400 UKP) and
robust. Also the TEC B452 - not cheap, and slightly eccentric serial
interface. Also the little labelwriters from Costar: tiny & very cheap, but
hard to program (no fonts) and expensive consumables (1 inch reel of lengthwise
labels, perforated backing).
