I have a binary file that I am splitting based on a particular field in the file; it's a one character field. The field in ascii (text) would be a 1 or a 2. However, I can't check for a 1 or a 2 because it is in binary. How do I check for a 1 or 2 yet write out the output files in binary? I...

Is there a way to convert the one specific column from binary to check for a match but only save that non-binary data in a variable and then the output files be all binary still?

I changed as you described but still not getting my output files when I use the big input file. Even tried a smaller subset 7gig --> 70meg. Starting to wonder if it has to do with the input file being in binary. Not viewable on UNIX so what I think is a 1 or 2 is "encrypted". I appreciate...

Then there's a problem. Is there a size limitation for the output? I don't get any output, and I've verified the location of the 1 and 2 lookup column. It takes a bit to come back so it seems to be processing. I got it to work on my small dummy files and now am implementing it on my big file...

One more question. In the substring, is that start at a zero offset or at 1?

I really appreciate the info. I have searched and searched forums, webpages, documentation, etc. for some insight. I figured that someone somewhere has had to do something similar. Wish I had just posted here first. Thanks so much!

Pretty awesome Annihilannic! I have it working!!!! Now if I can implement all these parameters, it'll be all good. Thank you for your help!

But if you remove the while/do, how does the script know to keep reading records?

Don't laugh because I have messed around with this for a while and finally figured I better get the basics to run first...I am probably waaaayyy off. Thank you for the help. # This script will take the XXX.dat file and split into 2 # files based on rec type. If rec type = 1, then record #...

I am a complete newbie at UNIX scripting. I have only written some really basic scripts but now have to figure out a solution that our ETL solution cannot do. We use ksh. This is my need: 1. Parameters passed to script for the following: xferin ---> the directory where the input file is to...

I have tried everything to get my vbscript to create a session variable and then insert it into a table with other data but nothing seems to work. The session variable is being set correctly but when I try to insert it into another table, I just get a 0 (zero) for that field every time; the...

Thanks folks! Got it going now.

Actually, just a high-level understanding of what I need to do is good. All the links for the product categories will go to the products page. My question is how do I pass the parameter of the actual category to that page where I can check for that category in the database on the detail page...

First of all, I'm using ASP, VBScript, and MS Access. My links (categories of products) on my website pages are dynamically created depending on the "active" products in my database based on their categories. Can anyone guide me in how to make these categories actual links that when clicked on...

I am using Dreamweaver MX, Access db, and using ASP/Javascript. I have a page where user inputs email address and submits. The submit redirects to next page. On load of next page, I lookup the email addy in db, grab name and psw, then send email to user with info. Stuck bigtime! The first...

Thanks. I'll try over in the other forum. sw
