Documentation Update
Product: UTL Directory Version: 08.00 Date: March 17, 2008 Beginning with the 7.04 release, #FILES and .d00s are no longer supported by the Reporter and Data Express.
Version 8.00 and above require Comet 2007.387 or higher and Comet Server Products 8.00 or higher in order to use DataExp.
1. QReport This has been completely redesigned. It is the launch pad for the Reporter and the new report editor, DataExpress.exe. 2. DataExp New front-end to the Reporter to assist you in designing and editing your reports. 2. DbMgr Added Data Dictionary search by actual filename to the Utilities tab. Output is sent to LPH. Improved performance of "Import from FORMAT" utility. 3. ViewMgr Added option to save the view as .ibr Reporter spec file. Corrected a problem that was preventing views from being accessed if one of them was an empty file. 4. QTILITY Changed default work directory to "TMP" from "RAM". Repaired the hyperlink to CED EDITOR repaired. It was broken in version 7.02.
Changes in previous releases: 7.04 1. New #CFILES replaces the .d00 files used as a Data Dictionary. A utility has been added to DbMgr to convert either the old #FILES or the .d00 files to the new #CFILES. Once converted, #CFILES will be used for DbMgr, ViewMgr, and the Reporter. 2. DbMgr The "Utility" tab contains a new program to generate #CFILES. A new "XML" button has been added to generate an XML representation of the data in a file. Optionally, the data from linked files may be included. The file is created in the $CATEMP folder. 3. ViewMgr The ExView.exe program that interfaced to Excel has been eliminated. Instead a .csv file is created and then launched. 4. DbLaunch Corrected problem that could have caused DbLaunch to get into an endless loop for non-CometAnywhere clients. 5. CmtHelpD A new lookup subprogram has been added as a replacement to the CMHELP table lookup program. This program uses a ListControl to allow the user to select the record whose primary key field will be returned to the calling program. Use of this facility requires #CFILES. The programmer's interface is defined in CmtHelpD.inc which can be found in the XTL release.7.03 1. Changed all of the Data Express programs to transfer the .dll and any required .bmp files to the workstation so they can be loaded locally. Previously this was only done for CometAnywhere clients. 7.02 1. Removed CONDENS from QTILITY menu as it only supports file sizes up to 756. 2. ViewMgr Implemented new method for loading initial list box which could speedup the process. 7.01 1. DosCopy Eliminated E27 on "List" for keyonly files. 2. ViewMgr Column headings were being truncated at position 132 on the output when listing to a printer. This has been increased to 252. 3. The Reporter The version of the Reporter that uses .ibr spec files now recognizes the verb SPACES as well as SPACE. 4. QTILITY In the event that TERM$ has been cleared and is therefore invalid for a foreground partition, the QTILITY overlays will not be run.
