I'm investigating a request where the customer seems to be trying to get something similar to our ELF utility - a quick method for finding people (phone numbers, mail addressing, etc) when in ALL-IN-1. The customer wants to view the following attributes from their mail database: Employee name Node ID User ID Department Division Phone number Building Location It seems like this should be and extension to the Search Mail Directory option. With SMD, searching DDS, you can see only the Surname, given name, Department, and phone number. I know that ALL-IN-1 Mail provides something similar to this (and I'll be talking with Gozer about that!) by accessing the callable interface to DDS. What things need to be kept in mind when applying this to the Search Mail Directory option? Another request was for the ALL-IN-1 DDS interface to support adding fields to hold such things as the user's PROFS id and social security number. Won't this require a change of the Profile? What are the arguements for either doing or not doing this? Is there an easier way? Any help, suggstions and code-pieces :-} appreciated! Barb

Barb, I moved your note from 117 which was all about CMS and appears to me to have no link to SMD.... hopefully you won't hit me too hard! This is the same question Leah asked me yesterday - are you Ex-Calendar Girls on the same project? Regards, Andrew.D.Wicks | |||||
187.2 | its that DECwindows version of VAXnotes! | SEWNSO::PEACOCK | Back in the saddle again | Mon Mar 09 1992 15:27 | 11 |
Andy, Thanks for moving it. One of these days I'll get better at noting with the DECwindows interface for notes! RE: Leah. No, we're not on the same project. She just "lobbed" it my way for further investigation. Now, ye DDS guru, what's your opinion? Barb | |||||
187.3 | SRO or not SRO that is the question | AIMTEC::WICKS_A | Vote Bill'n'Opus for a weirder USA | Tue Mar 10 1992 02:06 | 10 |
Barb, Of course it can be done - the functionality is already there on the GOLD V form off DIR SMD (DDS$INDEX$VIEW). No more info til I see what bribery is on the table (:==:) Regards, Andrew.D.Wicks | |||||
187.4 | SRO, but of course! | SEWNSO::PEACOCK | Back in the saddle again | Tue Mar 10 1992 18:38 | 6 |
I'm sure this will require lots of time spent at our system research office! I'll be talking with you soon. Thanks, Barb |
