Changes Since Previous Version Changes since the version dated 2001/01/26: o Announce new sqr-jobs mailing list; Job Announcements section updated to reflect this new list. 2. Introduction 2.1. sqr-users Mailing List The sqr-users mailing list was created to enable discussion related to the SQR database language from Brio Technology (and to other products in the Brio.Report line). Note: SQR used to be published by SQRIBE Technologies, which was merged into Brio Technology on August 3, 1999. The mailing list is provided as a service of Ray Ontko & Co. A searchable archive of past postings to the mailing list is available from the SQR Users Group web site . 2.2. sqr-users Hints and Guidelines Document This document gives various hints and guidelines about the sqr-users mailing list. It will be posted approximately monthly to the mailing list so that new users can see it (and existing users can find it easily). An HTML version of the document is always available at http://www.sqrug.com/sqr-users/sqr-users-hints.html. If you have comments or suggestions about this document, please contact me directly at the address listed in the title section. This document is Copyright (C) 1999-2001 by Ray Ontko & Co. It may be freely copied and distributed provided it is not modified in any way and it retains the original copyright notice. 2.3. Related Mailing Lists sqr-jobs : SQR Jobs This list may be used for posting SQR-related resumes, recruitments, job announcements, project announcments, help- wanted, work-wanted ads, etc. To join, follow the link above, or send any message to "sqr-jobs-subscribe@yahoogroups.com". peoplesoft-fans : PeopleSoft Fans Moderated list covering technical and functional aspects of PeopleSoft. To join, follow the link above, or send any message to "peoplesoft-fans-subscribe@yahoogroups.com". psusers : PeopleSoft Users For questions related to any aspect of PeopleSoft (including PeopleSoft-specific SQR issues). This list has merged with the Peoplesoft Fans mailing list and is no longer active, but the message achive can still be found at the link above. rm-users : ReportMart Users List for discussion of Brio.Portal (previously called ReportMart). To join, follow the link above, or send a message containing the word "subscribe" in the body to "rm-users- request@sqrug.com". 3. Basic List Server Commands Note: The list used to be hosted on usa.net , but the list-hosting service was moved to list.iex.net . The old addresses for the list, list server, and list owner no longer work. A few basic list server commands are listed below. Send these commands as the only line in the body (not the subject line) of an e- mail message sent to "listserv@list.iex.net". 3.1. Subscribing to the List To subscribe to the mailing list, the command is subscribe sqr-users Your Name Note that you do not need to provide your e-mail address as it is taken from your message's header. You will be e-mailed a confirmation number, which you must then send back to the list server software before the command goes into effect. 3.2. Unsubscribing from the List To unsubscribe, the command is simply unsubscribe sqr-users Once again, you will need to confirm your command before it goes into effect. 3.3. Digests Once you are subscribed, you can request to get your messages in digest form (one large message containing all of the posts made each day) by sending the command set sqr-users digests If you use digests you should not just "reply" to the digest mailing. Instead, be sure your message's subject header matches the subject in the original posting to which you are replying, and that you don't include a quoted copy of the entire digest in your post. Use "nodigests" instead of "digests" to restore normal distribution. 3.4. Problems If the above commands do not work, please contact the list manager at "sqr-users-request@list.iex.net". (Do not send a message to the list itself -- no one there can help you with your problem!) Please include a copy of the error message you received from the list server. 4. Posting to the sqr-users List In order to post to the mailing list, you must be subscribed to it (see directions above). 4.1. General Guidelines For any message you send to the list, please: o make sure your mail software is not requesting a "Return Receipt". (If a "Return Receipt Requested" message is sent to the list, several dozen receipt messages will be sent out to the mailing list in reply from other subscribers.) o do not send messages in HTML or other special formats. (These are not usable by many subscribers, especially those who receive their messages in digest format.) o keep in mind that over 500 people will receive your message, and that it will appear in the list archives. Try to keep your messages on-topic and relatively short. Consider sending your message directly to particular people if it won't interest many of the list's subscribers. 4.2. Posting a Message Once you are subscribed, you can post to the list by sending a message to "sqr-users@list.iex.net". Be sure your subject heading describes your specific problem or question (i.e. don't just use "SQR Question"). In the body of your message, please include the following information: o Brio product and version number o Operating system and version number o Database name and version number o Application name (i.e. PeopleSoft) and a version number, if any Also, include a short code sample whenever possible. It's much easier for other people to understand what you are trying to do when they can see the actual code. (At the same time, be careful not to post confidential or proprietary code, since the posting will be placed in a public web archive.) Note that your question should relate to SQR or other Brio Report product in some way. Don't ask questions about PeopleSoft, for example, unless you are having SQR-related issues. To find out your version of SQR, you can run the following program: begin-program show $sqr-ver end-program This will produce a line that looks something like this: SQR/3.0.15/Intel/SCO Unix R3.2 V5.0/Oracle 7.2.2.3/Sep 25 1996 Include the full line of output in your message. Note that the oper- ating system version number listed here is the one under which this copy of SQR was compiled, so you'll still need to include your own information. 4.3. Replying to a Message Messages sent out on the list have a Reply-To header pointing to the list. This means that you should be able to simply use your mail reader's "reply" function to send a reply to the list. Generally, all answers to questions sent out on the list should be public replies, so that other subscribers can benefit. In those cases where a private reply is appropriate, be sure to over-ride the default Reply-To address. If your message is not actually a reply to the earlier message, please do not use the "reply" function. Instead, address a new e-mail message to the list as described in the previous section. (This is because the list archives will incorrectly show the new message in the original thread if you use "reply".) You should quote enough lines from the original message that later readers can understand your answer even if they missed the original question. At the same time, you should remove any unnecessary lines from the quote in order to make your message shorter and easier to understand. (Remember that some people read the mailing list in digest form, and the digests become much larger if unnecessary lines are quoted.) In particular, in order to prevent mail loops, the list server will not accept messages that contain From:, Sender:, etc. lines pointing back to the sqr-users list, even if these lines are quoted (i.e. with ">" characters). Be sure to delete these from your reply message before sending it. 5. Job Announcements Please do not post job announcements on the sqr-users list, but use the sqr-jobs list instead. (See ``Related Mailing Lists'' for more information on this list.) A large number of sqr-users subscribers do not want to receive job announcements (for various reasons) and such posts tend to cause a lot of disruption of the discussion on the list.

Subject: Extraneous Rows Inserted in SQR Hello all - We are running PeopleSoft HR 7.5, People Tools 7.58 - with Informix 9.21HC5, and Unix 11.0 I am having a problem with an SQR that is selecting rows that I have inserted in the program. Here is my select: FROM PS_JOB J, PS_PERSONAL_DATA PD, PS_EMPLOYMENT EMP WHERE J.EFFDT = (SELECT MAX(J1.EFFDT) FROM PS_JOB J1 WHERE J1.EMPLID = J.EMPLID AND J1.EMPL_RCDN = J.EMPL_RCDN AND J1.EFFDT <= $Process_Date) AND J.EFFSEQ = (SELECT MAX(J2.EFFSEQ) FROM PS_JOB J2 WHERE J2.EMPLID = J.EMPLID AND J2.EMPL_RCDN = J.EMPL_RCDN AND J2.EFFDT = J.EFFDT) AND J.EMPL_STATUS IN ('A', 'L', 'P', 'S') AND J.REG_TEMP IN ('R', 'T') AND J.FULL_PART_TIME IN ('F', 'P') AND J.EMPL_CLASS = 'A' AND J.SAL_ADMIN_PLAN = 'CMA' AND PD.EMPLID = J.EMPLID AND PD.PER_STATUS = 'E' AND EMP.EMPLID = J.EMPLID AND EMP.EMPL_RCDN = J.EMPL_RCDN In the above example, process_date is '2001-10-01'. Based on my Select, I may insert a row with an effective date of 2001-10-01. If one already exists, I increment the sequence # to avoid an error on a duplicate key. One of the LAST steps in the SQR is to perform the COMMIT (after selecting/inserting rows). The problem is my Select is arbitrarily retrieving some of the rows I have just inserted. When it does, it inserts another row (with an incremented sequence #). There is no rhyme or reason or pattern. Sometimes it may insert 1 or up to 5 extraneous rows. We have a workaround - storing the EMPLID in a temporary variable (Temp_Emplid), adding an ORDER BY J.EMPLID and selecting where J.EMPLID is > than Temp_Emplid. Has anyone else experienced this problem ??

From owner-sqr-users@list.iex.net Mon Oct 1 10:52:55 2001 Date: Mon, 1 Oct 2001 08:46:08 -0700 From: Arjan Hoornstra Subject: Re: Extraneous Rows Inserted in SQR I have had a similar problem with the update of a row selected by SQR. I can describe the problem which applies for Sybase, don't know how much applies for or can be translated to Informix. The problem is that, if you insert an extra row, it will go to a datapage. The sqr-select creates a cursor on the table. Now if you add a row to the bottom of the table (depending on index) it will be selected in the end by the sqr-cursor. If you insert it at the head of the table, the cursor has passed this page already so it will not be selected again. Then, if you do an insert, the page on which the row is inserted may be split because the extra row must fit between 2 existing rows. This results in a different number and order of pages which can be selected or reselected by the cursor. So the simple advice is: never place your sqr-cursor on the table you wish to insert or update, or never do an insert or update on the table your sqr-cursor is placed on. You should either: - place the table you need in a temporary table where you put the cursor on, insert/update the original - or store your inserts/updates in a temporary table which you all execute after the cursor is finished. Hope this helps...

Since JOB is a table with multiple keys, I would make my select statements according to the placement of the keys such as 1. Emplid 2. Empl_RCD# 3. Effdt and 4. Effseq. In your select statement you did not include the EMPL_RCD# as the first order of select since I also assumed you are reading JOB as ordered by EMPLID. What I would do is create a procedure to read JOB (just like your select statements) except I will order it by Emplid, Empl_Rcd# desc, Effdt desc, Effseq desc. This way I will always have the latest rows as the first record being read. To avoid reading the subsequent rows, I will have to control the reading of rows within the same EMPLID: Eample: Begin-Procedure Read-Job let $OldEmplid = ' ' let #test = 0 begin-select [Your field selection here] TEST: If #test = 0 move 1 to # test move &EMPLID to $OldEmplid [Do you regular processing here like adding rows] else if &emplid = $OldEmplid goto BYPASS else Move 0 to #test goto TEST end-if end-if BYPASS: >From [Your tables here] where ???? Order by emplid, empl_rcd# desc, effdt desc, effseq desc. end-select end-procedure _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp From owner-sqr-users@list.iex.net Mon Oct 1 09:09:14 2001 Date: Mon, 1 Oct 2001 09:55:42 -0400 From: Patricia Stanley Subject: Re: Calling an SQR from an SQR This is a MIME message.

2001 14:09:26 -0400 From: Debra Robarge Subject: Re: SQR # indicates a numeric variable or is used in #define to declare contants called substitution variables in your program. $ indicates either a String or Date variable. By default, SQR will recognize $ as a string variable. This is why it is required to declare $date variables in SQR; SQR needs to be told explicitly when a $ variable is a date. Debra A.

"Comprehensive XML read and write capabilities" and "Supports numerous report output formats including HTML, XML, WML, paper, text, postscript, email, FAX, PDF, SPF, and others" but there seems to be no information anywhere in the Brio Reports documentation or anywhere on the web to say how it can produce XML files. Does SQR have special commands/procedures to do it or do you just have to write the tags to your output file explicitly? Can anyone tell me any further info about it or point me to a website, please? _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp From owner-sqr-users@list.iex.net Tue Oct 2 10:57:04 2001 Date: Tue, 2 Oct 2001 11:55:32 -0400 From: Scott Barnes Subject: SQR-HTLM Font Question? I have SQR 4.3 running on NT and Oracle 8i. I am using the Printer:HT command because I can't get the Printer:EH to work. I want my report not to be in a fixed font. I can not figure how to get the tag out of the htm report I am producing. No matter what I do in the set up: this code above appears in the html code. I tried taking font out and I tried to change the font to 2 which would fit the report in the Browser window better. I tried an alter-printer to change the font to TimesNewRoman. Nothing works.

Allen, when the error is in the SQC, it actually tells you. I'd tell you: 'error in the include file... line ....' The error you're getting is because you have a procedure that does not begin or end with the keywords: "BEGIN-procedure ..." or "end-procedure ..." check your code on that line (1612) and make sure you do have those keywords if it is the beginning or end of a procedure.

It turned out that while SQR supports multiple report functionality, PeopleSoft did not. What I think is happening to you is that the default names for the additional reports are not compatible with your system's naming conventions. I got around my particular problem by calling each new report in the beginning of the program, and then deliberately setting the output file, thereby bypassing the default output file ($sqr-report). It's little lengthy, but the following had to happen: !SQR: MultipleReports.sqr ! Set up and write to 3 separate output reports !************************************************************** begin-setup !declare report names and formats used !------------------------------------- declare-report interface_errors ! error report end-declare declare-report Summary_Rpt ! summary report end-declare declare-report Detail_Rpt ! detail report end-declare end-setup !Do the following in your initialization phase to attach !the report output names to the correct reports. You !CANNOT write to any of these reports until this is done. !*********************************************************** begin-procedure init-program use-report interface_errors !This first call sets the value of $sqr-report !i.e., $sqr-report = '\bin\output\MultipleReports.lis' !Use this variable to set the value of the next output report use-report Summary_Rpt new-report '\bin\output\MultipleReports1.lis' use-report Detail_Rpt new-report '\bin\output\MultipleReports2.lis' end-procedure !Now call each report as you need it with the 'use-report' command !***************************************************************** begin-procedure Process-Main use-report interface_errors !perform processing.... use-report Summary_Rpt !perform processing... !etc.... end-procedure I don't know if the problem you're having is exactly the same, but please feel free to contact me with questions.

I would just like to clarify a few things- -When you mention the member of your parmlib, are you referring to - - the Config Manager SQR flag settings in PeopleSoft - the SQRPARMS member, which in our environment looks like this - DSN SYSTEM(DHP2) RUN PROG(SQR) - PLAN(DBCALLS) - LIB('SYS3.PSOFT.SQR.LOAD') - PARMS('DDN:SQRIN DSN/PSOFTPRD -FDDN:SQROUT -P:HP -S - -IDDN:SQRINC( -TBZ -MDDN:MAXIN') END - something else? - We typically run our SQR's from PeopleSoft using shell JCL, which defaults the print file to a DDNAME of SYSOUT. We do have a few SQR's that we don't run from PeopleSoft. They are run on the mainframe as stand alone jobs. If we need to use "custom" DDNAMES for the multiple reports, then I assume I will have to create a new stand alone job, with it's own JCL. I don't see how I could do this using the shell JCL. Is this what you had in mind, or am I missing something? Thanks again for your help. This is the first time we have attempted this. It could be quite helpful now and in the future.

The parm member I meant is the SQRPARMS like the one you have in your mail. Instead of -FDDN:SYSOUT you would have -FRPT1 -RPT2 (here RPT1 and RPT2 should match the DDNAME you have in JCL pointing to the preallocated PDS and should match the name in your DECLARE-REPORT RPT1 in your program). We ended up creating one parm member which has -FP1 -FP2 -FP3 -FP4 -FP5 , and that give us the flexibility of using the same parm member without having to recreate that for each program. But then each of our multiple report program need to use report name as P1, P2, etc., and we don't have much choice about the report names because of the constraint of the command line length. if we have a program that generates only 3 reports, we would still need to define as many (in this case, P1 - P5) declare-report as the -F in the SQRPARMS. Same rule applies for JCL. ex., the JCL might look like : //P1 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=PROD.UGL.REPORT(RPT01) //P2 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=PROD.UGL.REPORT(RPT02) //P3 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=PROD.UGL.REPORT(RPT03) //P4 DD DUMMY //P5 DD DUMMY our SQR is 4.1.7.3 same as yours. We don't have multiple report program run from PeopleSoft , but I think you will need a special shell JCL (or JCLs) for multiple report programs to run in MVS server.

Hello everyone, In the GUI version for SQR workbench (4.1.1) is it possible to join two tables using an expression like substring on one side of the join? I know I can do it once the SQR code is created, but am stumped as to how it's done in the GUI report builder. If not, was this added in a newer version?

Hi I'm currently trying to create a chart with 2 Y axis'. I'm using 2 arrays (one for Y1 and one for Y2), but I can't get it to work properly. It only draws the one arrays' data. Should I use the arrays differently? Only use one array? Am I missing some other setting? I can't find any help on how to use the Multichart functionality. Any input, or even better, an example would be appreciated. create-array name=AxisY1 size=100 field=cast:char field=left:number create-array name=AxisY2 size=100 field=right:number ... ! Populate arrays..... ... print-chart testChart (15, 20) type=bar data-array = AxisY1 data-array-column-count = 2 data-array-row-count = #Count y2-type=line y2-data-array = AxisY2 y2-data-array-column-count = 1 y2-data-array-row-count = #Count Oracle 7.3.4 SQR 6.1.3 Unix 11....

I need to print multiple lines of small legal text for a Bill of Lading report confined to a small boxes within the form. By using the alter-printer command (Alter-Printer Font=4 Point-Size=5) and changing the point size I'm able to get the neccessary characters on each line within the box but the line spacing stays at the default (12 pt I think). I need to be able to get the lines closer together to get all the text(lines) in the boxes. I'm printing to a HP PostScript printer. Thanks in advance.

DBATEST is the database owner in DB2. I need it in order for a Select to run on DB2. The part for the error below that confounds me is the reference to a "&name". Its as if the compiler is expecting an SQR column defined when it is optional. When I add an SQR column (e.g. &Z.ROW_IDENT) I get the same error. Also, I've verified that my ROW_IDENT field is the correct field. I even tried adding a WHERE clause. Is there something that needs to defined in the SQR or SQCs beside the reference to ODBC in the Begin-Select? Or do Begin-Selects require a unique syntax for DB2? ERROR SQR 1303) Error in SQL (perhaps missing &name after expression): SELECT ROW_IDENT FROM DBATEST.FIT_HR_PROF_CHGS (SQR 1304) Check SELECT columns, expressions and 'where' clause for syntax.

9 10:38:20 2001 Date: Tue, 9 Oct 2001 10:35:25 -0500 From: Ray Ontko Subject: Re: Setting Variable Procedure Names Paul, Here is a solution that you might find acceptable. The basic approach is to add a "dispatch" procedure. Instead of: Do $procedure you would say: Do dispatch( $procedure ) where "dispatch", looks like this: begin-procedure dispatch( $procedure ) lowercase $procedure evaluate $procedure when = 'show_fred' do show_fred break when = 'show_wilma' do show_wilma break when = 'show_barney' do show_barney break when = 'show_betty' do show_betty break when-other show 'unknown procedure: show_' $procedure move 1 to #_return-status stop quiet end-evaluate end-procedure ! dispatch This isn't much worse than what you were hoping for. Since you have to add the new show_XXX procedure anyway, you just need to add a few lines to the dispatch procedure for each new show. Also, note that if you needed to pass parameters to the procedures, and they all take the same parameters, you can easily add them to the dispatch procedure and pass them along to the individual called procedures. Hope this helps. Ray > Hi there all, > I'm new to this list and decided to post a question.

Otherwise it's something to try and understand because this could be a lot of fun. I use this method to extract data for exporting them to different other programs and some programs to test data-integrity on the database. In the last case I created a panel on wich you can enter multiple simple queries that are being fired at the database by means of just one sqr. (we're running about 600 different tests..) So: In your program you could do this ... ... let $tablename='MYDATA' do insert-data if $myerror='YESYES' ! the only 2 lines you need extra in do error-routine ! your program end-if ... ... begin-procedure error-routine do create tmp-table let $tablename='TMP_' || $tablename do insert-data do show-data stop end-procedure begin-procedure create-tmp-tbl let $tmp='TMP_' $table_name ! the next sql-block should be changed to be dynamic too. ! you have to analyze the table as shown further below ! to create a where clause that generates no rows so ! you just get the structure ! or use a dynamic create-statement begin-sql create table [$tmp] as select * from [$tablename] end-sql end-procedure begin-procedure insert-data begin-sql on-error=set-flag insert into [$tablename] values (vsafgag, wrtw, ... ... ) end-sql end-procedure begin-procedure set-flag let $myerror='YESYES' end-procedure And now this is the tricky part. The next part is fictious, it depends on the database It's just to show you the way it works. begin-procedure show-data let $column='' begin-select column_name column_type column_length evaluate column_type when ='char' let $column=$column || ' rpad(' || &column_name || ',' || column_length || ','' ''),' ! i.e. rpad(address,30,' '), break when='num' let $column=$column || ' to_char(' || &column_name || '),' ! i.e. to_char(number), break when='date' ...... from [$tablename] end-select begin-select [$column] &column print $sql-error (+1,1) print ' in table ' () print $tablename () print &column (+1,1) from [$tablename] end-select end-procedure Frank Kloprogge Fontys ICT-Services DBA PeopleSoft 08778-78710 -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: Paul O'Riordan [mailto:Paul_O'Riordan@AVERYDENNISON.COM] Verzonden: dinsdag 9 oktober 2001 13:39 Aan: SQR-USERS@LIST.IEX.NET Onderwerp: Re: Setting Variable Procedure Names I like that, 1 procedure for them all - potentially terrible for maintenance though!

Does anyone know if it is possible to assign a Value to a variable and then call that veriable as a procedure: for example, in my error-handling I want to display all of the variables that I was trying to insert or update when I caused and error. I have created a "Show" procedure for each of my Insert procedures but I don't want to hard-code the search for which procedure erred out. (Laziness). Also each procedure is seperate and unique so it is not as if I can pass parameters "Do show_procedure($whatever)". Below is what I want to do, sort of, but it doesn't work. Has anyone tried anything similar and succeeded? If #sql-status = -9 !Duplicates on insert Else Show 'Error in Procedure : ' $proc Show 'SQL-Error = ' $Sql-Error Show 'SQL-Status = ' #SQL-Status Let $procedure = 'Show_' || $proc Do $procedure End-if Thanks and regards, Paul ------------------------------- The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.

Could someone explain with some examples ? 2) The report that I creating has about 8 columns. The records are a part of this report only if the value of a a certain column within the database is more than a pre specified value and this is something which I have already done. The second part to this is that we need to display the value of the same field above as on the previous business day and two business days prior to the current report generation date. Is there a way I can do this ? 3) How can I use functions within SQR ? Can someone explain with examples ? 4) Can I have nested Begin-Selects ?

But this might still help. Is there a date field in any of the tables your pulling from that tells you if its today's data , yesterday's data, etc.? If so, remove the second and third set of currency codes and balance amounts and put them each into their own procedure and selects and pass them to variables. Call these procedures from within the original Begin-Select within the procedure Begin-Program. Then use the print command in your Begin-Program to print out all the data.

I use it to generate the layout of my report (boxes, fonts, positioning), as well as CSV and XML files. I then take the generated code and customize it (for me that mostly means adding HTML tags). The end result is pretty solid. The major problem i have encountered in doing this is that if I make a change to the layout I have to match that change in my customized version and if the change is major, duplicating the change can be difficult (particularly because BRB uses absolute positioning and the order the code is generated in can change after a change is made to the layout). BRB also has the capability to insert code segments in certain places through the Source view in the application itself. For me that feature was not flexible enough. I'm not sure how much BRB costs or if it generates 4.3.2 code (I use it for 6.1.3).

Thanks to all for your suggestions. "Lynds,Rick" cc: Sent by: Subject: Re: negative zero "Discussion of SQR, Brio Technology's database reporting language" 10/15/01 11:05 AM Please respond to sqr-users I think what you have is a number like "-0.001". I did a (very) little test and got the results you described. What you may consider is rounding your number to 2 decimals i.e. let #amt = round(#amt, 2) it that would not mess up further calculations (or do it just before printing). HTH Rick Lynds Metropolitan Water District Well the problem is that I may have a valid negative number i.e: -123.00, therefore I wouldn't want to always change it to a postive. I tried the abs function and it didn't do anything. I also tried encoding a negative sign and a zero, and doing a find for each. The finds work, but for some reason do not work if I embed if statements (if $neg = 'y' and $zero = 'y').

It seems far more likely that it is DB2 fooling with the SQL. If you run your SQR with the -S flag, what does it show the cursor as? If you dig through your database theory books, you'll see that a join _is_ a restriction of a Cartesian product. It seems an odd and inefficient way to get there, though. Is it possible that your optimizer is running with bogus statistics? In the Oracle world, that's what I'd look for; I don't know how DB2 works.

I'm using sqr 6.1.3 on solaris, using db2 connect to get to os390/db2. I've seen lots of problems with sqr butchering the sequel BEFORE passing it to the dbms, mostly whenever you try to do something entirely reasonable, like using advanced sequel techniques such as NTE's, etc. Sometimes sqr sends only half the statement, which dies in the prepare, of course. I've had to resort to shoving the entire statement into a variable, just to keep sqr from messing it up. This works _most_ of the time, but leaves us with undesirable side effects (repetitive sequel has to be prepared each time). Once you remove the commas on the column criteria, you might want to consider using explicit INNER JOIN syntax. We've getting used to wiggling the sequel to get it to work. I wish I knew exactly what the pre-parser in sqr was doing. To be fair, it's almost impossible to handle all the nuances of a sequel dialect - I just wish it worked as well as the Oracle parser.

Subject: Re: Windows 2000 Question I had major problems when I installed SP2 with various programs that were directed to c:\temp via an ini file or other on the network. C:\temp had permissions granted to all but still had the problem of being recognized. Since the programs called bat files, etc on the network , the only way we decided we could fix the problem was to revert to SP1. I removed SP2 and things started working again. This doesn't solve the problem for the future but it was also what I found in the archives. Tom Hins Information Technology - Application Solutions University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center P.O.

Current consensus is that Windows 2000 does not recognize the c:\temp directory, which is our default for files created on the client. I've heard of various fixes, including setting your normal output directory to another name and changing the program defaults. ($Outfile = 'C:\not_temp\xxx.sqr' ?) I'm open to suggestion.

That the structure persists is not really a problem: no permanent storage is allocated. That the table is GLOBAL is not a problem: no two sessions can see each other's data. So, assuming that you have created the tables as CREATE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE AAPGMO_TMP (EMPLID VARCHAR2(11), PGM_NBR NUMBER) ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS (or ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS if the temporary data does not need to persist between transactions), all you have to do is remove the BEGIN-SQL/END-SQL paragraphs and change the table names.

When I was on the project, we had the same issue in a way. We wanted to only allow employees to get leave accruals if they had been hired before the 15 day of the month. Later, the client decided to change the process to prorate for the entire month but that is another story. What we did was run the monthly leave accrual process with the PS delivered leave accrual code. After the monthly accrual process was ran, the client ran a custom SQR to adjust (remove) the granted leave accrual if the employee did not work. The SQR code also created a report to show employee information (emplid, company, hire date, rehire date, leave accrual plan, etc) and hours adjusted. The report was created for testing and auditing purposes. In all, the approach worked very well as did not require creating a custom leave accrual program and used the PS delivered leave accrual program. While I can not give you the code (client and company owned) , I can provide you the general program outline below. I have removed the clients information. This program was written to use a temp table which is compared against a table holding all active (A,L, or P status) and runs in a Tivoli batch environment. It uses some custom grant tables to grant the sick and floating holidays. It runs for a large international company with multiple plans ( over 20 vacation, 2 sick, and 10 floating holidays) and runs under 15 minutes. The client wanted non-employees and so they were converted in the plan under company code 999 and 888. You will not need some of this but I hope this gives you the general idea. There may be other methods but this approach worked well for the client. Hope this helps. Franz Do initial Setup for the PS processing. Get run parameters from PS-Q-HR-CNTL-BEN (this is a custom table) Clear temporary work space table ? PS-Q-LV-ACCRL-TMP Get accrual process dt parameters (accrual process date & maximum leave balance) from PS_LEAVE_PLAN_TBL Clear the working table for leave accrual processing Select all employees from PS_JOB, PS_EMPLOYMENT, PS_LEAVE_PLAN where employee is a US employee and insert these employees in the working table PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_TMP. Do not process non-employees who are agency temps (Company code 999) and contractors (Company code 888); or who have employee class of G (Agency Temps) or R (Contractors). Select all employees in the PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_TMP table whose leave accrual plans and or companies in the PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_TMP do not equal the leave accrual plans in the PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_PROC. For all of the employees with unmatched leave accrual plans, update the employees PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_PROC to equal the PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_TMP leave accrual plans. Process all new rehires or hires in PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_TMP, PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_PROC, PS_LEAVE_RATE_TBL and prorate their vacation hours. If the employee was not hired on the first day of the month, check to see if the employee has a leave accrual row. If a leave row does not exist, insert a leave accrual vacation row in the PS_LEAVE_ACCRUAL table with a prorate vacation hours for the month according to the vacation plans. Update the employee record in the PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_PROC to show that the record has been processed. Process all new rehires or hires in PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_TMP, PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_PROC, PS_LEAVE_RATE_TBL and grant the employee's sick and float hours. Check to see if the employee has a leave accrual sick or float row. If a leave row does not exist, insert a leave accrual sick or float row in the PS_LEAVE_ACCRUAL table with a granted vacation hours for the month according to the grant plans. Update the employee record in the PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_PROC to show that the record has been processed. Process all new active employees in PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_TMP, PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_PROC, PS_LEAVE_RATE_TBL and grant the employee's sick and float hours. Check to see if the employee has a leave accrual sick or float row. If a leave row does not exist, indicate an error. If a leave row does exist, insert a leave accrual sick or float row in the PS_LEAVE_ACCRUAL table with a granted vacation hours for the month according to the grant plans. Update the employee record in the PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_PROC to show that the record has been processed. Check the PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_PROC table for employees who have a null ACCRUAL_PROC_DT. Write the employee to the error report and delete the row from the PS_Q_LV_ACCRL_PROC. Get the current date and time to display ending time. Close outbound file and Reset SQR process scheduler.

All SQR arrays are created at compile time and I don't believe they grow and shrink as needed. You allocate the size (in rows) and the size you allocate would be limited to the amount of memory you have to utilize. However, you could utilize the #DEFINE substitution variable, such as creating one called {max_array}. You could then use that as a loop limit so that you can access arrays without going past their declared size..i.e., utilitizing it with the loops={max_array} argument within your begin-select, as well as, declaring your array size = {max_array}.

David, Since SQR is written in C, it uses the C function "memalloc" to allocate memory to an array as it begins to fill.

Yes, Stan is correct. Not to put too fine a point on it, I think that when you declare the array, SQR creates an array of "pointers", usually 4 bytes per array element. Only when you start to populate rows in the array are additional bytes allocated. I'll guess that for each row, there is an overhead of 4 bytes per field or occurrence in the row. Further, there is additional overhead per string, decimal, or date value. In answer to David's original question, the overhead per row is about 4 bytes even if you only use 400 rows out of a million. Note that this may change in a future version of SQR, but that's my understanding of how all versions have worked since 2.x.

(And Stan Quick wrote a very helpful answer explaining how this is done using "memalloc" in C...) Great - this was exactly the CompSci-geeky answer I was looking for... But my next question is, what is the upper limit of the array size? Can it actually be anything, or does it have to be <= the largest integer SQR can handle (about 2 billion,. which I presume is 2^32...)?

Win32Client Error.SQL Not Found Look Hi, It's been a long time since I worked with SQLBase, but first of all, this message is telling you that it cannot find ERROR.SQL. This is a file that stores SQL error codes and their related messages. When you have an error, SQR uses this file to get the message to display. I did happen to have a copy of error.sql ('inherited' from a predecessor whose PC I inherited, from back when they had a SQLBase version of ADP PC/Payroll, I think), and looked up 03701, and here is what it said: The errors documented in this section of the Error Guide are for errors that relate to the Configuration File Manager of the SQLBase database. 03701 CFF NCF No configuration file Reason: The SQL.INI configuration file could not be found after searching the current directory, the \SQLBASE directory, the root directory, or the specified operating system search PATH. Remedy: Check for the existence of the SQL.INI file in the appropriate directory. So, the error itself is that it cannot find SQL.INI, but it couldn't give you the message because it also could not find ERROR.SQL. I imagine they both should be in the same directory, but I do not know what that is in your case (in my case, they were both in C:\ADP\SQLBASE). Maybe they are not there, or the directory does not exist, or some setting that should be pointing there is not set up correctly. Hope this helps a little, anyway!

I would suggest two methods: 1. If you know a reasonable maximum limit on the number of fields, you can do something like this: unstring column_list by ',' into $c1 $c2 $c3 $c4 $c5 ... begin-select [$c1] [$c2] [$c3] [$c4] [$c5] [etc] However, either all the fields have to be the same type or you have to know what type they are and assign the names to the right type of variable. 2. The second way is to use a first program to construct a portion of a second program. open 1 as 'whatever.inc' for-writing begin-select column-name column-type write 1 from &column_name let $text = ' concat '','' with $out' write 1 from $text let $text = ' concat &column_name with $out' write 1 from $text from all_tab_columns end-select close 1 and in the second program begin-select #include whatever.inc from $table-name etc I think you can take it from there ....

You could change it to: EMPLOYER_APPROVED || ',' || to_char(PREV_SABB_ELIG_DT,'dd-mm-yyyy') || ',' || AUDIT_OPRID (so leave the 'select' out of there and make sure all the fields are character or converted to character) put the from in $from and the where clause in $where from PS_AUDIT_ABS_HIST where AUDIT_STAMP < SYSDATE - 1300; Then do begin-select [$select] &col=char print &col () [$from] [$where] end-select Frank Kloprogge Fontys ICT-Services DBA PeopleSoft 08778-78710 -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: Ashish Bhatt [mailto:ashish_bhatt@HOTMAIL.COM] Verzonden: dinsdag 23 oktober 2001 1:55 Aan: SQR-USERS@LIST.IEX.NET Onderwerp: Help in getting data into CSV file Hi Peoplesoft and SQR Gurus, I hope you are doing fine today.
