                The warning came up 4 times on my sample because I
                printed dates in this manner 4 times.  A warning
                which comes up 10,000+ times in a normal run, is not
                a warning that should be ignored.

                It's just a warning and your program will run.

                Hi all

                We have an NT system going with SQR 4, we use a delphi 2
front to be our
                print manager.  We would like to be able to send email and
the documentation
                we have is sketchy.  Currently Delphi call SQRWT with
commandline parms.  So
                does anyone know how SQRWT handles email?  Details,
anecdotes, sites etc
                anything.

                TIA

                We called up SQR/MITI/Brio, whoever they are this week, to
get the new
                version of SQR.

                We are using SQR4.2.3 on an HP Unix machine.
                We are not using any kind of graphical tools, but just
writing straight
                programs
                with the mighty editor vi.

                I wanted SQR4.3+, because I had heard that it was capable of
producing
                pdf files directly, without having to go throught the step
of making
                postscript
                files first.

                We got 2 CD's for Brio SQR ver 5.1 (ie. a major version,
rather than a
                minor
                version upgrade!!!) and a thin manual.  The upgrade manual
mentions
                that there are 2 reference manuals, but we did not get them.
We haven't
                installed it as of yet, but it is happening as we speak.

                Are the manuals on the CD, or do we have to order them
separate?

                and

                Can anybody tell the changes that have taken place and/or
any problems
                we will encounter running older programs?

                I notice that lists have been added.  Variables prefixed
with %
                How are they used?

                Thanks

                For SQR :
                A) Use LOOPS with Begin-select to specify no of rows.

                  Begin-select LOOPS=100
                B) Some counter
                  let #i = 1
                  Begin-Select
                  Fields
                    let #i=#i+1

                    do all-processing
                    if #i = 100    ! before FROM
                       break
                    end-if
                  FROM table
                  where....

                3) On Oracle Backend Select use ROWNUM <= 100 in where.

                Jason - Though this message is not related to SQRWT, I hope
that it sheds
                some light on what you are trying to achieve.

                Here at Ruan, we have always had the need to mail reports
from within an
                SQR.

                Exchange & Outlook 97 [our mail applications] do not seem to
have the
                ability to be invoked from a command line such that a
message can be sent
                without any user intervention. Or, if there was a way, we
couldn't figure it
                out.

                A colleague of mine, who works with VB, had some code that
achieved what we
                wanted. However, we didn't want to use VB as the
intermediary. This is what
                we agreed on :

                1. SQR runs and creates a report [LIS file] for each of the
terminals in
                question,

                2. The SQR also creates a file with the names of the
terminals and their
                e-mail addresses,

                3. Towards the tail end of the report, a batch file is
created and Word is
                called,

                4. There is an AUTORUN macro within WORD that will be
executed,

                5. This macro will run to completion only if file from (2)
exists,

                6. Using the file names and the e-mail addresses, the VB
function is called
                repeatedly, and

                7. When the macro has completed, it has the ability to close
down Word and
                return control to the SQR.

                Like I said, I am not sure if this is of any help to you but
if you are
                completely stuck, give me a call and I will be happy to
discus the above
                with you...

                Sincerely,
                Krishnan
