1625.1 | OA$CNV_CONVERT, but it should happen automatically! | IOSG::PYE | Graham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's Apprentice | Mon Oct 19 1992 14:20 | 13 |
| You just need to do a <OA$CNV_CONVERT into the new form name. That's
all that's done during initialisation, it's just done in BLISS so you
can't see it.
Unfortunately I can't remember the new form name, and my Workstation's
down so I can't look in another window :-)
However the mail initialisation code should check every time the user
starts up the image, so as long as they don't have a OANICKNAMES.DAT
file in their [.A1] directory, the code should od it next time they
enter ALL-IN-1.

1625.2 | Old form name ? | MASALA::GMURRAY | Have Mercy I Cry City ! | Mon Oct 19 1992 16:37 | 13 |

Hi Graham,
I've sussed the new form name - NIENTR - but can't figure out what
the old one is to do the convert ! Any ideas ?
There may be an underlying problem as the user has been into
ALL-IN-1 numerous times since the upgrade.
Cheers,
Gil

| The old form is called:
OLDNIENTR !!!!!!!!!
But seriously (??) it may be that we can't open the old file for some
reason. In any case, doing it manually might reveal the cause.

1625.4 | Got it ! | MASALA::GMURRAY | Have Mercy I Cry City ! | Mon Oct 19 1992 17:34 | 14 |

Thanks Graeme,
Highly esoteric !
The convert worked no problem at all, and coincidentally solved a
weird problem that the user had reported - after Forwarding a
message while Reading it and then EXiting he always wound up in his
[.ALLIN1] sub-directory.
Cheers,
Gil

1625.5 | Mysterious.... | IOSG::PYE | Graham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's Apprentice | Tue Oct 20 1992 16:35 | 7 |
| Both the convert not being done, and the exit into the wrong directory
indicate that something must have gone wrong during initialisation,
that we weren't handling properly.
I wonder what it was?

1625.6 | How was that again...??? | AKOCOA::MINEZZI | | Fri May 21 1993 20:42 | 16 |

1625.8 | Convert the NICKNAMES.DAT | AKOCOA::MINEZZI | | Tue May 25 1993 19:37 | 19 |
| re.-1
Yes the newdir command brought up the users record....
<OA$CNV_CONVERT OLDNIENTR NIENTR command returns;
%OA-E-DBNODBFORM,Form OLDNIENTR NIENTR is not in the library
If I try;
<OA$CNV_CONVERT OLDNIENTR
This stack dumps with an access violation.
Should I be doing this from the users account?
Thanks in advance,
Ron.

1625.9 | Where the comma when you need it | AIMTEC::ZANIEWSKI_D | Why would CSC specialists need training? | Tue May 25 1993 20:28 | 5 |
| I believe a comma is reqired between the two dataset names.
<OA$CNV_CONVERT OLDNIENTR, NIENTR

1625.10 | You need a comma | SCOTTC::MARSHALL | Spitfire Drivers Do It Topless | Tue May 25 1993 20:29 | 9 |
| Here's the problem / solution:
<OA$CNV_CONVERT OLDNIENTR,NIENTR
^
^
The two form names must be separated by a comma.
