Hmm,

I didn't know that, I know that it is a limitation of 8 charaters for
SQLBase,
but I didn't know there was a limitation of 7 charaters for reportmate.

Hi Fredrik,
I'm sorry I misstated, reportmate doesn't seem to like
anything over 7 characters for the datbase name. I can run
the same report with SQRW.exe and have 8 Characters for
the DB name.

Hi Wes,
Yes, Maximo 4.0 will be shipped with SQR 4.
I'm currently using 4.0.3 of SQR and we have some problems
with date
formats.
I'm aware of the problems with SQR3, whenever you are
using a date
function,
you have to code it specifically per platform.
The 8 character database name is a limitation in SQLBase,
even the 32 bit
version of SQLBase has that limitation.
Anyway, whenever Maximo 4.0 will be ready for shipment, it
will ship with
SQR 4.x
instead of SQR 3.x.

We use Maximo and I went from 2.11 to 3.0a to 3.02 over
thanksgiving. sqr version 3.013.3 has some bugs related to I
believe both SQR and SQLBase. Are you using SQLBase ?
It (Reportmate)doesn't like 8 character database names. It
has trouble with long passwords. When all fails I just run the
SQR with the -rs flag to compile from sqrw.exe. You can
make a shortcut and do the following in the command line
C:\SQRW\SQB\WORKBNCH\BINW\SQRW.EXE
g:\plteng\sqryork\filename.sqr ?Databasename/ID/PWD -rs
and then all you need to do is change the filename. Maximo
4.0 will be 32 bit so they will ship a 32 bit report writer maybe
SQR 4.0

     Chris,
     I have been administering Maximo 3.0.A and have just
completed an
     upgrade to Maximo 3.0.2.
     I have had a lot of trouble getting ReportMate reports to
run. Have
     you had any problems with the setup of ReportMate
reports within
     Maximo?
     Do you have to 'Generate SQR' script and compile them
with SQRW.EXE?
     Can you use the SRM files or do you have to compile
SQR to SQT?
     Any tips would be a great help as I would like to use
ReportMate.
     I have also experienced a bug in ReportMate. You can
put a '?' in the
     where clause but it doesn't work for dates. This is
supposed to be
     fixed in version 4. Romeu other than that, I've heard that
Maximo will
     ship with a completely different reporting tool with the
next version.
     Regards,
     Garry      gfarrell@fairfax.com.au
     ps Email me for any advise on Maximo 3.0.2 upgrade if
needed.

Romeu,
Maximo ships with a packaged version of SQR that is
unfortunately not
usually the latest version.  Since it is not purchased directly
from SQRibe
(the manufacturer) there is no upgrade agreement.  I believe
you would
actually have to purchase an upgrade.  I am implementing a
Maximo 3.0.2 job
and it comes with SQR V3.0.13.3 which has the ReportMate
development
software.  I like it much better that EasySQR, the earlier
version.
Don't know about a downloadable sample.  I haven't been to
the SQRibe web
site lately.  Perhaps someone else knows...

Good day for all.
I'm using SQR 3 Workbench working with Maximo
3.0.A./Oracle 7.3 and I need
upgrade my SQR version.
Could someone send me any reference about SQR 4?
Example:
Is the SQR 4 a 32bit software?
Can I download a beta version test?
Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks.
