    Error #438. Input at line #138

    Hi Mark, Without seeing the rest of your macro, I'll guess that the macro loops through a folder containing reports. Each report is opened and passed the prompt value. If this is indeed the case, are you setting the report object to nothing each time you are finished with it? ie...

    Macro Script - casting

    Hi Gilles, I believe you are casting to an ascii character using the asc function rather than to a binary value. ie: cslg(asc("A")) = 65 however the binary value of "A" is really 01000001. I suspect you would then want to perform your bitwise operation on the binary value using the xor...

    Changes in Data Source Column

    There is no easy way to accomplish this task. A couple of suggestions. 1. Modify each individual IQD in a text editor NOTE: Manual modifications to IQD files are not supported by Cognos. 2. Add a new calculated column to the datasources within the Model to reflect the new value. It is...

    (TR2934) SORT-E-FILECREATE,

    Increase the SORT_MEMORY size - should be a setting in Configuration Manager, otherwise the entry can be found in the cer3.ini file under the [Services] section. This value should be increased in increments of 512.

    Macro OpenWithBasicSignon

    Do you have a namespace in your Access Manager named "Script". If not, objAuthDoc will be assigned a value of "Nothing" and therefor attempts to reference this object will fail.

    A couple more options ... 1. You could create Hotfiles against one of the databases (must be a seperate catalog) and join the hotfile to your table(s). Access "may" have troubles large amounts of data. 2. Add your Oracle connection as a "Linked Server" in SQL Server and use SQL Server Views...
