Hello,  
I have a problem with special danish characters, when retrieving data from a CISAM table stored on AIX/UNIX server.
The tables a accessed throw AXIANT server on the UNIX,  to a thin Windows AXIANT client.
 
I think the problems is, the CISAM files are stored in a UNIX 8-bit ACSII character set,
and are not converted into a windows characterset when send to the AXIANT client.
 
I had the same problem with our ORACLE base but setting the variable NLS_LANG into a windows character set
in the PH8INIT file was the solution. (our ORACLE base is also in a 8-bit ASCII characterset )
 
Since we are converting a POWERHOUSE application, we can't just convert the CISAM datafiles into
and windows characterset, because we still want the POWERHOUSE application running.
 
We need some kind of setup that converts data on run time. 
 
Regards
Tim Frederiksen

You want to try it. But if ORACLE is working correctly you may also need to change your NLS_LANG setting. I think you need to find out exactly in what code page the C-ISAM data is written. You may have to write you own conversion routines.

Then look up on A and update on A_ALIAS. You'll need a unique key to link the lookup to the output. Inside the program, make all the changes to A_ALIAS, and test for ALTEREDREC of A_ALIAS for the condition below. I'm curious, though - the UPDATE won't happen unless there is a condition of ALTEREDRECORD anyway, and then the FINAL kicks in. I think the condition is redundant. I've found QTP to be tough to work with when depending on the ITEM statements and IF conditions for anything much more than simple data transformation. I usually use the selection criteria to handle all of the if conditions, so everything selected (input phase) gets sorted (sort phase) and output (output phase). Input and output phases work differently with the conditions, so read up on them in the QTP manual.

DCL treats a leading $ in the input stream as EOF (ie go back to DCL), unless you use $deck & $eod. Eg. $ qtp $deck use ... use ... $quiz auto=... use ... use ... $eod $ more dcl If you need to nest this behaviour, deck takes a qualifier, but I've never needed it myself. I don't know whether qtp would work this way (ie pass input over to the subprocess) - I suspect not. I've always used auto=, and no input to the subprocess.

There are 3 = options:

 

CEILING(NUMBER) for the next more = positive integer (works on negative #’s, too)

 

FLOOR(NUMBER) for the next less = positive integer.

ROUND(NUMBER,PRECISION,OPTION)

The application has ^C handling ignored. Unless the application enables ^C processing, ^Break is the only way to interrupt the application I The new environment will be the original environment passed to the cmd.exe and not the current environment. MIN Start window minimized MAX Start window maximized SEPARATE Start 16-bit Windows program in separate memory space SHARED Start 16-bit Windows program in shared memory space LOW Start application in the IDLE priority class NORMAL Start application in the NORMAL priority class HIGH Start application in the HIGH priority class REALTIME Start application in the REALTIME priority class ABOVENORMAL Start application in the ABOVENORMAL priority class BELOWNORMAL Start application in the BELOWNORMAL priority class WAIT Start application and wait for it to terminate command/program If it is an internal cmd command or a batch file then the command processor is run with the /K switch to cmd.exe. This means that the window will remain after the command has been run. If it is not an internal cmd command or batch file then it is a program and will run as either a windowed application or a console application. parameters These are the parameters passed to the command/program If Command Extensions are enabled, external command invocation through the command line or the START command changes as follows: non-executable files may be invoked through their file association just by typing the name of the file as a command. (e.g. WORD.DOC would launch the application associated with the .DOC file extension). See the ASSOC and FTYPE commands for how to create these associations from within a command script. When executing an application that is a 32-bit GUI application, CMD.EXE does not wait for the application to terminate before returning to the command prompt. This new behavior does NOT occur if executing within a command script. When executing a command line whose first token is the string "CMD " without an extension or path qualifier, then "CMD" is replaced with the value of the COMSPEC variable. This prevents picking up CMD.EXE from the current directory. When executing a command line whose first token does NOT contain an extension, then CMD.EXE uses the value of the PATHEXT environment variable to determine which extensions to look for and in what order. The default value for the PATHEXT variable is: .COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD Notice the syntax is the same as the PATH variable, with semicolons separating the different elements. When searching for an executable, if there is no match on any extension, then looks to see if the name matches a directory name. If it does, the START command launches the Explorer on that path. If done from the command line, it is the equivalent to doing a CD /D to that path. -----Original Message----- From: Kenn Baynton [mailto:bayntonk@ElectionsOntario.on.ca] Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2003 10:50 AM To: PowerHouse List (E-mail) Subject: Background processing Greetings all, As some of you may know, I am engaged in a conversion project to move from OpenVMS/ Interbase 3.3J/ PH 7.1 to Win2K/ Oracle9i/ PH 8.41C.

If they swear this is not the case then you might consider that the QKGO file is not being called up. 50 is awfully big for this parameter and I'm surprised to hear of one so large, unless the application just serves to call a ton of COBOL programs. I suggest that somewhere in System, Account, User mystery of UDCs you'll find the problem. You might test this by setting up a UDC that calls a special QKGO file with some special First Screen to make absolutely sure UDCs are working properly for this user.

The script works and the variables is set in the = calling process when run

I'm not sure what is causing the = error (check your file protection), but I

Hi all,

I need to execute a shell script = from Quick, and retrieve the environment
variables, set by the script.

The script works and the = variables is set in the calling process when run
manually from the shell with a dot preceeding the = scriptname (.
<scriptname>) but when I try from Quick using RUN = COMMAND ". <scriptname>"
it fails with an exit status of 126. =

It is the leading dot, that = causes the error because when I try RUN COMMAND
"<scriptname>", I get no errors - but the environment variables set by the
script are of course not available to GETSYSTEMVAL = afterwards. =

So I guess that my problem can = be re-phrased to: How does one execute a
shell command from Quick using the same shell instance as = Quick runs in? = =

Any help will be highly = appreciated. =

I have seen resource problems occur in such apps. E.g. Screen A calls screen B (or X, Y Z) Screen B can call screens/commands C, D or F Screen D can call screen B or F or even A. Command C spawns Screen H. Screen H can call screen A or B. So the user ends up several layers deep but thinks they are only down say 1 or2 layers. In memory you could end up with several versions of screens A, B, etc as well as external routines.

If they swear this is not the case then you might consider that the QKGO file is not being called up. 50 is awfully big for this parameter and I'm surprised to hear of one so large, unless the application just serves to call a ton of COBOL programs. I suggest that somewhere in System, Account, User mystery of UDCs you'll find the problem. You might test this by setting up a UDC that calls a special QKGO file with some special First Screen to make absolutely sure UDCs are working properly for this user.

When the shell executes a new child process (subprocess) it passes the environment to the new process. The environment consist only of variables that have been exported. By using exported variables you can pass global information to any subprocess. Whether the environment is used by the subprocess depends on the subprocess. Subprocesses cannot change the environment of a parent process. They can change their environment but the changes cannot be passed back to the parent."

I need the record count to sort on, so a summary operation such as count or subtotal won't help. The problem is to read a record and save the value of one of the fields so it may be compared with another field in the next record. This is to determine if the date range in the first record overlaps the range in the second. I've been sorting on the record count in QTP in order to provide a break on each record... SORT ON EMP-NO, POS-NO, DATE-PLAN-START, TI-REC-CNT ...then saving an end date field in a temp when the record count breaks (which it does on every record)... ITEM TD-END-TMP = DATE-PLAN-END AT TI-REC-CNT RESET AT POS-NO ...so it can be compared with the start date in the next record: DEF TC-DUP-FLAG CHAR*01 = "Y" & IF TD-END-TMP <> 0 AND TD-END-TMP >= DATE-PLAN-START & ELSE "" This tells me if the end date in record (n) is >= to the start date in record (n + 1), if so the range in the second record overlaps the range in the first, and it is written to a subfile to be reported in Quiz What I am trying to do is make this a simple one pass Quiz. I may as well keep the current QTP method if I am going to be forced to use two passes and a subfile in Quiz. I can see as I think through what I am writing here, that I would also have an issue converting the ITEM TD-END-TMP... statement to Quiz as well. Perhaps it's just not worth the trouble.

I need the record count to sort on, so a summary operation such as count or subtotal won't help. The problem is to read a record and save the value of one of the fields so it may be compared with another field in the next record. This is to determine if the date range in the first record overlaps the range in the second. I've been sorting on the record count in QTP in order to provide a break on each record... SORT ON EMP-NO, POS-NO, DATE-PLAN-START, TI-REC-CNT ...then saving an end date field in a temp when the record count breaks (which it does on every record)... ITEM TD-END-TMP = DATE-PLAN-END AT TI-REC-CNT RESET AT POS-NO ...so it can be compared with the start date in the next record: DEF TC-DUP-FLAG CHAR*01 = "Y" & IF TD-END-TMP <> 0 AND TD-END-TMP >= DATE-PLAN-START & ELSE "" This tells me if the end date in record (n) is >= to the start date in record (n + 1), if so the range in the second record overlaps the range in the first, and it is written to a subfile to be reported in Quiz What I am trying to do is make this a simple one pass Quiz. I may as well keep the current QTP method if I am going to be forced to use two passes and a subfile in Quiz. I can see as I think through what I am writing here, that I would also have an issue converting the ITEM TD-END-TMP... statement to Quiz as well. Perhaps it's just not worth the trouble.

Message-ID: <22891C4DC32D234EA7719468C29A1783104A37@ChiExch2k.corp.blistex.com> "MERGE" BTW, SQL is no better than Quiz at doing this type of task. Unless you do a self join, and have something to join on, you can't compare one row with another in the same table. You do it in QTP due to the existence of variables (temp items) that can be persistent in the course of the code execution. SQL can achieve this in a cursor but at least in Transact SQL (SQL Server) cursors are so resource intensive they're often not worth the bother. I would use the same method you describe in T-SQL as well as this would provide the best performance.

You may find this helpful. I often did. OK, it is not a one pass trick, but it avoids having to compare data in one record with data in the next record. IMO, Quiz is not so good at that. In the first pass, get the first date leaving the second date blank (0). In the second pass, get the second date leaving the first date blank (0). In the third pass, combine the two records for each employee doing a KEEP AT EMPLOYEE_NO, using a MAX on both dates so as to save the significant date and drop the blank (0) date. Then you can compare the dates within the same record. ;First pass acc employees define first-date date = employee_file_date_item define second-date date = 0 set sub name outfile keep rep sum employee_no &, first_date &, second_date go ;Second pass acc the_other_file define first-date date = 0 define second_date date = second_file_date_item set sub name outfile APPEND rep sum employee_no &, first_date &, second_date go ;Third pass acc *outfile sort on employee_no set sub name outfile2 KEEP AT EMPLOYEE_NO rep sum employee_no &, first_date MAX &, second_date MAX go Does anyone know the technical term for this method ? I call it Squeezing because it kinda squeezes two records together.

From VGoparaju@tradepointsystems.com Fri Aug 29 17:58:52 2003 From: VGoparaju@tradepointsystems.com (Goparaju, Vidyasagar) Date: Fri, 29 Aug 2003 12:58:52 -0400 Subject: Unix file conversin using 'dd' command Message-ID: I have an ASCII file with 6 records in it and the record terminator is a NEWLINE character. All the records are less than 80 bytes. I have to read this file using Powerhouse dictionary record which is 200 bytes fixed length sequential file. I have been playing with 'dd' command and different options. None of them working for me. When I type the file using 'cat' command, it is showing correctly. But when I read the file in QUIZ, I am getting different number of records (less than 6). Any help will be highly appreciated.

Wouldn't it be nice if PowerHouse was able to really read UNIX (LF delimited) and DOS (CRLF) delimited file natively, without having to go through hoops? The parsers seem to cope happily.....
