We have a significant revenue opportunity for Digital, and I need
some suggestions from this forum. We need to deliver results soon.
A large ALL-IN-1 customer has contracted us to find and print
ALL documents from a 1.5 year timeframe which discuss particular
topic(s). We have their complete system and user disk backups,
and are restoring them now.
The approach we would like to take would be to fully automate
the selection of the various users folders and the searches.
Does anyone have ideas (or specific scripts) to automate this task?
We thank you! Paul Gallo & Pennyann Christopher

Hmmm... How about a (mega) script that:
For each user -
- Loop down through the FC, selecting documents with
modification (or created) dates that match the initial timespan.
- If the document is not ASCII, copy it to an ASCII version
- $ SEARCH the document (or copy) for strings matching the
desired criteria
- If match, call WPPRINT.SCP after setting appropriate symbol
values.
Not too difficult, just tiresome.
Cheers, Tony

| 4006.2 | what about this? | IOSG::BILSBOROUGH | SWBFS | Tue Mar 22 1994 09:11 | 16 |
You could simply use the index form in EM to look for documents in
folders which contain X in the title with a creation date between A and
B and with the phrase "MUMBLE" contained in the text.
So you could create a SCRIPT SCRIPT (this allows you do fake user input)
to do this for you and then it could print them out as well.
You'll want to use NEWDIR command which allows you to switch between user
accounts and then execute the script script.
Not sure if this will work but I can't see why not.
