QTP update error

[Latimer, Richard]

Hi George,

I have never tried this but it certainly sounds an interesting idea ! 

Brainstorming it with other people here our conclusion is that if it is an
occasional thing there is probably no solution. 

However if you have the time and tools it is fairly straightforward to
declare the file in the PH Dictionary, either your usual one or you could
create a special one just for the job. Create or modify the dictionary using
PDL and then compile it but don't create the file in PHDFM (since it already
exists). Any PH program using that dictionary can then acess the file
normally.

Subject: QTP update error




Hello Listland,

We're on PH6.07 on an AS/400.  Using PH on this system allows you to access
any
DB2 database file as a subfile in the event that file is not in your
Dictionary.
This is a
very nice feature and would be even nicer if the file could be updated via
QTP.
When
I try to update via QTP I get the error "Can't update an existing file that
isn't a
PowerHouse subfile."  Does anyone know of a work around or way of doing
this???

Thanks,

GjW
