2403.0. ";;;; in overquota form" by CROCKE::YUEN (Banquo Yuen, Darwin Australia) Fri Mar 12 1993 07:36

    Hello
    
    When a customer try to customize OVERQUOTA FRM, they find a
    name data with 4 consecutive semi-colon, when he exit the name data
    editor, the 4 semi-colon become 6 semi-colon, and you *CAN'T compile
    sitememres.flb.  I try reducing the 4 semi-colon to 2 and exit the
    name data editor, it become 4 and other thing works.
    
    What is the meaning of having 4 consecutive semi-colon in the name
    data?
    
    Is there any other method getting around this problem?
    
    Thanks
    Banquo

2403.1Questions...IOSG::PYEGraham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's ApprenticeFri Mar 12 1993 08:2411
    I can't see this in my version of the OVERQUOTA form. What is the next
    few lines of named data after the ';;;;'?
    
    The only thing I can think of is that one of the menu option symbols
    referenced in the named data is not defined, or perhaps the form
    library has got corrupted... What language is this system? Does the
    form look OK from CTRL/N before you try to customise it?

    PS I fixed the "can" to a "can't" in your base note and deleted your .1

    Banquo,
    
    The correct number of ; would be 6 for a null piece of named data
    what happens if you use 6 and try and exit.
    
    the only place in the 'base' kit i've ever seen this used was on form
    SA after the install of the TCP thing which is how i found out that
    particular incantation of magic character insertion to satisfy the
    create and powerful Gods of Script and Named Data compiling
    
    Like the gentlemen in .1 and .2 I don't have this particular
    named data on form OVERQUOTA
    
    regards,

    Hello
    
    I check with the old (V2.4) overquota form, the name data should
    be MBI.  The software is installed from saveset on nov92 CD.
    
    I looked at another V3.0 system which have been installed for
    9 months, the same thinkg, ie ;;;;, in the overquota form.
    
    Thanks

    Hi,
    
    Yes you're right. It was ;OA$_MO_OQ_MBI;; and should have been
    ;;OA$_MO_OQ_MBI;;
    
    We have fixed this in the PFR, so you don't need to SPR it. You can use
    CM to fix it yourself if you wish.
    
    Cheers
