453.0. "What's Going On, Coach?" by 58028::ROSENBERG (Dick Rosenberg VRO5-2/C7) Fri Apr 15 1988 09:51

    To all you NOTES mavens out there, can you help me with my problem:
    
    I have a batch job that runs ENOTES every morning at 6:00 A.M. It
    is supposed to extract all UNSEEN notes from everything in class
    ENOTES and put it in a temporary file. BAGELS is in class ENOTES.
    Until the recent demise of the file I would get my BAGELS unseen
    notes along with the other conferences I monitor on a regular basis.
    Since the problem with the BAGELS file on HUMAN:: and its subsequent
    move to RAWFSH:: and then IAGO:: I am not getting the BAGELS notes
    in my temp file anymore. Yet when I go into BAGELS through NOTES,
    it says No New Notes. I do a directory and there are new notes
    there that I haven't read, yet they are marked as SEEN.
    
    Any answers?
    
    Thanks,
    
    Dick Rosenberg

	Read the title of this file, or was it the notice. For some reason, whenever a file is transfered to another node, the pointers in your notebook are lost and don't get updated until you explictly SET SEEN/BEFORE=Move_date after opening the file.

That is not quite how it works. The move to RAWFSH screwed up your SEEN list because it included a recovery to an old version of the file. Your notebook contained SEEN pointers for stuff that doesn't exist yet. This gets NOTES very confused. Gavriel

	That's exactly how it works "Gavy" so shut your yap! 8-} By the way, thank you very very much for taking over BAGELS on such short notice.
