felix.muges...@gmail.com (FELIX MUGESERA) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 09:55:46 UT

Hi all,
I am currently running jBase 4.1 over a lunix sever: Red Hat Enterprise
Linux AS release 4 (Nahant) and T24 Desktop R05.007 - 1.4.761.
If any one can provide the documentations about OFS, please pass it to me I
want to use it in my development.
Thank you to everyone who will assist me,
Best Regards,

Hi Jim,

sorry for my comment, just couldn't swallow easily you took me to the
cleaners with your comment. I appreciate your effort as I do read your
comments.

Once again am sorry.

thanks

T24- Using Desktopon R08

pk8bar...@gmail.com (Paa Kwesi Barnes) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 07:42:12 UT

Hello All,
I am running a 64 bit R08 on jbase 5 and instead of using the browser (which
came with the application) I would prefer to use the desktop. I had a file
($.S.SIGN.ON) which I was able to catalog and compile using a 32bit machine.
This is not possible now with the 64bit R08.
Does anyone have any solution or can anyone help on this issue.

I wonder why someone is trying to update a CUSTOMER file in a banking
software directly, bye-passing all the validations and updating of related
files.

Hi,

As this is clearly an update to a T24 file I would suggest you use OFS

Its the "whatever" your missing its the "whoever". Jim is the author
of jBASE and knows more about it then anyone. He is very generous in
the free help he gives us all in this forum so my best advice to you
is: politely bow to him, follow his rules, and just suck it up when he
criticizes you.

Sigh - nobody ever reads anything.

Most people just get on this list, delete everything that comes in that isn't about them and so ignore all my pleas to read the posting guidelines and include descriptions and so on. Then they post their own question and rely on the 20 or so people that actually do read the posts and answer other people's questions. You are not one of the former though right? Hence you must have read the 20 requests I made over the previous 7 days or so for people to please read the posting guidelines, which means you just ignored me? Can you tell me why? Or did you just delet all the old posts to this list without reading them and make your own post?

Hi,

As this is clearly an update to a T24 file I would suggest you use OFS
- no coding necessary.

If you persist with your program and corrupt the file I think we all
know that you will get no assistance from the HelpDesk.

OFS is well documented in the T24 user guides.

Regards,

John.

Hi Jim,

Pardon me for my blunders even as the moderator or whatever you still went
too far with your comments

Before updating the customer record - read this record.
If the customer ID you are trying to update already exists - you will
spoil the rest of the fields...

If you trying to update INAU file open NAU file no Live file

Try with:
FN.CUSTOMER = 'F.CUSTOMER$NAU'
F.CUSTOMER = ''
CALL OPF(FN.CUSTOMER,F.CUSTOMER)

Please read the posting guidelines before posting.

You can't just send a program and say "It doesn't work" - what the Zarquon does that mean? You have to help others help you and just posting a program and saying it does not work is the height of stupidity - especially when the posting guidelines are there to tell you not to do this.

Please use jbase.markmail.com and search for internationalization. But you need to do the following:

1) Enable internationalization (see jbase.com knowledgebase and down load the internationalization manual);
2) Ensure that your text file is UTF-8 encoded (or if it is not then you will have to configure the code page);
