Progress question

Yahoo Archive
1
It seems a bit slow today, so I will ask this.
I am attempting to write a procedure that will grab data from the VB fields
of one table (Part) and plug them into the user fields of another (JobHead).
First attempt at actually writing data to the database. Figured I was safe
with the user fields if any.
Anyway, I think I got most of the details worked out in it, but now I get an
error that says I can't compile programs that write data to the database in
this version. Is this because of the way I am going about this, or is this
a limitation of the version of progress that I have?
The code is included below in case it is of any help.

Thanks for any response.

It's late and I'm just typing this from memory. But I think this will do
what you want:

-------------- code assigned to button ----------------

SET {_CLIPTEXT} = ""
RUNPROG VBP\filename.p
SET JobHead.UserChar1.SCRVALUE = {_CLIPTEXT}
RUNPROG VBP\filename.p
SET JobHead.UserChar2.SCRVALUE = {_CLIPTEXT}
RUNPROG VBP\filename.p
SET JobHead.UserDate1.SCRVALUE = {_CLIPTEXT}

------------- filename.p i vbp directory ---------------

/* include vbp/vb.i so VBasic functions are accessible. */
{vbp/vb.i}

/* Find and assign the part number to a variable */
FIND JobHead WHERE ROWID(JobHead) = GetCurrentRowID() NO-LOCK.

/* Find the associated Part and grab the data into variables */
FIND Part WHERE Part.Partnum = JobHead.PartNum NO-LOCK.

CASE CLIPBOARD:VALUE:
WHEN Part.Character02 THEN
CLIPBOARD:VALUE = Part.Date01.
WHEN Part.Character01 THEN
CLIPBOARD:VALUE = Part.Character02.
WHEN "" THEN
CLIPBOARD:VALUE = Part.Character01.
OTHERWISE
MESSAGE "ERROR" VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX.
END CASE.

/* Finish */
RETURN.

Has anyone ever tried installing Vantage 6.0 Server on a Windows XP
machine?

I have recently tried this and found that it does not work (the mfg files
are never created.)

I called tech support and they told me that this was because Vantage 6.0
Server does not work on XP Pro; however, that it works on EVERY other O/S
out there.

Anyone ever come across this problem; and more importantly, anyone figure
out a way to fix it?

The tech support guy told me that for some people it works and for some it
doesn't, but they are unsure as to why it works half/half.

Thanks for any incite into this issue,
Jessee Holmes

P.S. the only reason im installing this on XP Pro cause we're testing
something, I would never install for a live environment on a desktop O/S.
Just in case anyone is wondering.

Jessee,



I have Vantage 5.2 / Progress 9.1d server and client running on an XP
laptop. I use it to test patches, utilities and update our database over the
weekends. The progress explorer tools would only work with w2k so I use the
procontrol utility to start and stop the database. See document 2350MPS

Andy,

Thanks for the reply.

My database runs perfectly through the progress explorer tool, no problems
there, starts right up and everything seems to run.

I install my client and then try to click on one of the desktop icons .. and
the system comes up with the browsing dialog trying to look for the files
the icons link to (mfg files in the mfgsys60 folder). The system cant find
the mfg files and then asks me if I want to delete the shortcuts.

Any idea here?

Are you using a physical drive letter or a drive letter mapped to the folder? Wasn't there some issue about client on same system having to use a mapped reference? Or was it the other way around...? Just a wild guess.

Well I just figured it out the problem ... Seems it was a security issue ...
I believe I kinda took some funky steps to get about it, but what I ended up
doing was applying full security rights to the everyone group on the C drive
then told it to apply the settings to all directories and subdirectories.

I deleted the mfgsys60 and train60 folders and then reinstalled the vantage
server software... I looked in the folder and the icons were still not
there, so then I tried installing the client AGAIN through the mapped drive
and once I did that WITH the new security settings applied ... It worked
perfectly.


Thanks for the idea Andy ... And FYI im on Progress 9.1D SP6 (might want to
try that if you don't have that all ready.

true, that also may have had something to do with it, I believe I tried
installing the client through the c drive at first by accident (which was
dumb of me); however I later realized my error and did a reinstall with it
through a mapped V drive.. but yes you can have server and client on the
same machine running (I even believe Epicor recommends this but don't quote
me on that).

Anyways, per my previous email I did get it fixed, thanks for the input
though. I appreciate it.

Andy,

Thanks for the reply.

My database runs perfectly through the progress explorer tool, no problems
there, starts right up and everything seems to run.

I install my client and then try to click on one of the desktop icons .. and
the system comes up with the browsing dialog trying to look for the files
the icons link to (mfg files in the mfgsys60 folder). The system cant find
the mfg files and then asks me if I want to delete the shortcuts.

Any idea here?

Jessee Holmes

Jessee,



I have Vantage 5.2 / Progress 9.1d server and client running on an XP
laptop. I use it to test patches, utilities and update our database over the
weekends. The progress explorer tools would only work with w2k so I use the
procontrol utility to start and stop the database. See document 2350MPS

Subject: [Vantage] Vantage 6.0 Server Install on XP Pro



Has anyone ever tried installing Vantage 6.0 Server on a Windows XP
machine?

I have recently tried this and found that it does not work (the mfg files
are never created.)

I called tech support and they told me that this was because Vantage 6.0
Server does not work on XP Pro; however, that it works on EVERY other O/S
out there.

Anyone ever come across this problem; and more importantly, anyone figure
out a way to fix it?

The tech support guy told me that for some people it works and for some it
doesn't, but they are unsure as to why it works half/half.

Thanks for any incite into this issue,

P.S. the only reason im installing this on XP Pro cause we're testing
something, I would never install for a live environment on a desktop O/S.
Just in case anyone is wondering.

I have it installed right on the C drive (no drive mapping) and share out
the Epic52 folder. Just skip the step of installing the Progress client
networking when you install the Vantage client. This works for 5.2, I’m not
sure about 6.0

true, that also may have had something to do with it, I believe I tried
installing the client through the c drive at first by accident (which was
dumb of me); however I later realized my error and did a reinstall with it
through a mapped V drive.. but yes you can have server and client on the
same machine running (I even believe Epicor recommends this but don't quote
me on that).

Anyways, per my previous email I did get it fixed, thanks for the input
though. I appreciate it.

Are you using a physical drive letter or a drive letter mapped to the
folder? Wasn't there some issue about client on same system having to use a
mapped reference? Or was it the other way around...? Just a wild guess.
