To HP e3000 users,
It has been two years since I have mentioned this to this list...
At website BEECHGLEN.COM under 'Freeware', can be found among other things,
two sets of PowerHouse tools.
One set creates Query like listings of any files available to Quiz's ACCESS
statement. The other set creates Quiz or Qtp code to give you a headstart
on report or subfile creation as well as creating code that can be used to
generate delimited ASCII files.
In each set there is a 5.06, 7.09 and a 7.29 version. Note: the newer
versions do have some added functionality. I think that the 7.29 version
works under Quiz 8.?? too. If you find that it does not, you could easily
adapt the code quite easily. Each step is documented and the whole thing is
driven by the primary input which is the output of a "show items" statement
in QUIZ.
I do not claim the code to be the most elegant or readable, but hey it is
free, safe and it works. Be sure to read the comments that are made in the
beginning section of each program.
To get these tools, just copy and paste into your favorite editor. Note
though that Editor.pub.sys will have problems with the '&' (continuation)
character. If Editor is all you have, perhaps copy & paste into Word,
change the '&' to a placeholder like a '%' (percent) character as an
intermediate step. When you have the file on the HP, change '%' to '&'.
