Hi bigdaddy01, You may wish to have a look around www.iiug.org - there are an awful lot of scripts and programs for dbas in the software repository area, including a couple for ontape/onarchive. HTH Cheers, -gumbie.

Hi, We used to run two distinct IDS 7.3x instances and insert data from one to the other via synonyms. Syntax, I believe, is:- CREATE SYNONYM syn_name FOR remote_db@server_name:tab_name HTH Cheers, -gumbie.

Hi, I'm not sure of the exact hardware you wish to run this on so have a look at the following link and you can check whether or not what you have in mind is certified for any of the SCO products, including UnixWare 7.x. HTH Cheers, -gumbie.

Hi again, Just to fill you all in on the progress with the above.... marsd solution worked for me whilst I was getting data files for locations with a 3 character code (meaning there is one 0 to strip out prior to insert into a table). However once I starting getting files for locations with a...

Hi All, Sorry if this is a really dumb question, however I'm not the best at shell scripting (let alone awk!) and I've exhausted all other avenues. I would appreciate any asssistance! Environment is NCR MP-RAS 3.02 I need to be able to do a couple of things to some ascii files that contain...

Hi, setld -i will show all software installed. Patches start with OSFPATxxxxxxxxxx HTH Cheers, -gumbie.

Hi Again, With my last post I made an assumption that you are running IDS on some flavour of UNIX - if you are running IDS on NT you should check the documentation for the correct location of sm_versions file in case it's a little different in NT. Cheers, -gumbie. :~\
