My customer upgraded from ALL-IN-1 V2.2 to V2.3 to V2.4. In V2.2, the
first and last names for all profile entries were set. After the
upgrade process to V2.4 completed, first and last names were no longer
set. Is this a known problem? Are there any entries on this subject?
Also, is there anything known about first and last names disappearing
from PROFILE.DAT? The same customer has other ALL-IN-1 VAXclusters
where the full name is set in PROFILE.DAT, but the first and/or last
name fields are mysteriously blank.
Any help or pointers would be appreciated.

David,
ALL-IN-1 v2.2 didn't have first and last name fields, they were
introduced in v2.3 so how did you store them? a customised profile
perhaps. The only name related field that existed in pre-v2.3 days was
FULNAM is this the field you're looking at?
Regards,
Andrew.D.Wicks

Wasn't there a script or command procedure that tried to split the full
name field into the component parts?
I seem to remember it had a number of bugs in it!

Hi,
I think this one is in my recall buffer.
PROFILE_CONVERT.SCP of V2.3 contains a minor typo:
Find the line that contains $USER_KEY . Change it to #USER_KEY .

My expectation was that the upgrade from V2.2 to V2.3 split the full
name into first and last name. I'm not an ALL-IN-1 heavy by any means.
I guess my expectations were just reset.
Will PROFILE_CONVERT.SCP in .3 run under V2.4?
