    Mac Software

    Of course if your not actually looking to "run Access" on your mac and just need "the data" - you could export the tables from MS Access into something (Excel tables?) that the Mac could readily read. Of course to utilize the data with complex relationships you would have to then imort the data...

    Unix Environment Variables

    Thanks for the input folks. I finally managed to find what I wanted..one way (the way I selected) was to use the PassEnv option on our web server. This allows you to add additional server environment variables which are initialized to the shell environment variable value (applicable to the user...

    Unix Environment Variables

    Sorry Folks...another CGI newbie here. I need access to one or more "Unix Environment Variables" in my CGI (Perl or Ksh) script. I realiize that CGI takes several environment variables from the server...but I need access to UNIX user level environment variables. If I execute a cgi script from...

    AS400 SAVLIB format

    Yes...I did use the binary option in ftp. I'll probably give this another try - just in case "something went wrong" - but it really doesn't invalidate my desire to bypass the AS400 entirely. I have nothing against the machine... It's just that the "files" are going to be ftp'ed to a Unix box...

    AS400 SAVLIB format

    That's basically the first thing I tried... The CD contained the Bzip file, which was undoubtedly done so the 700+ MB would fit on a CD. The un-zipped file was a TAR - I have no idea why since the archive only cointained a single file. After expanding the 1-file archive I found a file which...

    AS400 SAVLIB format

    I can try to find out what version of OS/400 he has...but his system is running a "software package" such that he probably has little interface to the actual OS. He probably chooses a "backup" menu function of some sort. Since you bring up release levels, what if he is more than two levels...

    AS400 SAVLIB format

    Yes it's very strange.. I actually received a Bzip of a TAR archive burned onto CD. After decompressing the Bzip file...I found the TAR archive to contain a single huge file - why you would TAR a single file I'm clueless. The single file "appears" to be some sort of SAVLIB - I've moved that...

    AS400 SAVLIB format

    I have what appears to be a SAVLIB from an AS400 that I need "data" from. Our AS400 seems incompatible with the format (media isn't the problem). I've been following what little I know about SAVLIB - 528 byte blocks (512 + RRN + checksum) and I can move from one L/D OBJECT DESCRIPTOR to the...

    PING !!

    Good explanation of the && and ||, but I'm surprised that nobody mentioned it basically means AND and OR. command1 || command2 is basicaly a logical OR test. A command returns a result of either it worked or didn't. Most scripting systems only evaluate a line to the point where the...

    The Sun/Solaris File System from NT

    I have a removable optical disk that created on a Sun Solaris system. I have little control over the system, but I can remove the disk and place it in an identical drive under WinNT (possibly Linux) - Since this disk was written by the Sun system and contains a "Sun file system" is...
