List-id: "This list is for discussion about the SQR database reportinglanguage from Hyperion Solutions." <sqr-users.sqrug.org>
Maybe the bug is restricted to SQRW (for Windows XP Pro).

Not to beat a dead horse, but this is what I get when I run the program as
you wrote it below:

line 1: "c:\student\dummy1.sqr"
line 2: "c:\student\dummy1.sqr"
line 3: "*c:\student\dummy1.sqr*"
line 4:  21
line 5: c:\student\dummy1.sqr


Appears in my log file as well as on the display (running SQR Developer).

I should have been more precise.  It looked like the show command was
working and I saw the literal text in the log file before and after the
$sqr-program value.  It's just that the $sqr-program value was shown as
null.

But your reply got me thinking.  I was assuming that the show command worked
perfectly on the $sqr-program variable.  Well, maybe the show command or the
$sqr-program variable are not what they seem.  Look at this:

begin-program
  show 'line 1: "' $sqr-program '"'
  let $x = $sqr-program
  show 'line 2: "' $x '"'
  let $x = '*' || $sqr-program || '*'
  show 'line 3: "' $x '"'
  let #x = length($sqr-program)
  show 'line 4: ' #x edit 999
  display 'line 5: ' noline
  display $sqr-program
end-program

produces the following log file:

line 1: "c:\sqr\abs003.sqr"
line 2: "c:\sqr\abs003.sqr"
line 3: "*c:\sqr\abs003.sqr*"
line 4:  17
line 5: c:\sqr\abs003.sqr

BUT, the display window contains:

line 1: ""
line 2: ""
line 3: "*c:\sqr\abs003.sqr*"
line 4:  17
line 5:

So this is a bug in the show and display commands.  Thank you, Paul, for
pointing me to the answer, and thank you, Kevin, for research that
strengthens my theory.  (Kevin demonstrated that the value was in
$sqr-program, and that the print command could output it successfully.)

The reason this came up was that I was searching the Peoplesoft Process
Definition table for the the process definition that corresponded to this
program.  The selection returned no rows and I tried to debug it by using a
show statement.  Now I'm thinking that my debug tool (show or display) was
the second problem.  The first problem is that I have to strip the path and
extension, and uppercase the filename before I use it for the selection.

Steve:

THe result of the show command goes to the log file.  If you look there and
its still null, then the format of the show command needs to be checked.
There are no special flags or include files that are needed to use the
reserved variable.  Unless, PSOFT has removed the variable from their
version of the SQR executable, you should be able to see the value..........
Another thing you might try is just to show some other value or variable to
make sure that the show command is indeed working.......
