Hi,

OpenVMS
Powerhouse 8.40.D

I’m trying to generate PDL from a version 6 dictionary from a very old VAX
computer. When I use setdict and reference the PHD files I receive the
following warning:

%POWERHOUSE-W-OLDDICT, This is a 512/710F dictionary.

When I then run QSHOW it doesn’t recognize the dictionary and returns the
following message:

%RMS-E-FNF, file not found
*E* No valid data dictionary was specified.
Q S H O W   (PowerHouse  8.40.D)
Copyright 2004 COGNOS INCORPORATED

Is there a work around for this problem?

Thanks,
Jim
