ALL-IN-1 V2.3 A customer with LOTS of documents has recently been encountering :Problem with COPY function" errors. His DOCx directories contain 1,700+ files. GOLD-W doesn't enlighten any further, but my suspicion was that these directories have reached their saturation point. To "prove" this we temporarily renamed the existing DOCx directories and created new empty ones, and everything worked. What is interesting though is that only ALL-IN-1 fails. Issuing create or copy from within DCL to these directories does succeede. 1. Why does ALL-IN-1 fail when from DCL it works? 2. What can the user do (he CANNOT delete files until the end of the year). Thanks, Cb.

Cb, i hope that this suggestion is not too late, as there were only two days left before the end of the year! If the documents are "read only", then why not create some new ALL-IN-1 users and protect their file cabinets to allow access to the original user. Copy the existing files into the new file cabinet (using the [USER]FOLDER syntax), treating the different [USER]FOLDER combinations a bit like DRAWERS in v3.0. This will spread the files out across lots of DIRs. I am a little surprised that ALL-IN-1 is failing with only 1,700 files, which is less than 200 per DOCx directory. You could try to "compress" the DOC directories by renaming them to eg DOC1OLD.DIR, creating a new directory and renaming all the files from the old to new directories. Does GOLD-W give any information? mb |
