    Calculate duration of start-stop time

    Thanks, but I think I didn't clearify what I was asking for. I don't need to know how long the transaction runs within the actual program itself, rather, when it does run, the system stores the date/time on each transaction from begining to end. Example: abc 10:09:00 def 10:14:05 ghi...

    Calculate duration of start-stop time

    I'm trying to caculate the number of minutes a program runs as its updating a table to see how long it takes the database to make them. I know Progress stores it in secods or miliseconds...but if I try to subtract start from end, doesn't add up. ie: start time 13:00:00, and end time is...

    How do I get AIX process id from MFG/PRO session ID?

    kill command is not what you want in AIX You can 1 of two things: 1) run promon to see what the userid and tty for that user is and then compare it to processes for the user using " ps -fu'username' " This way you'll know which process it is under AIX when using "ps -fu " command. 2)...

    How to create scrolling window for selecting of files

    Yes, this seems to work, it puts the select on the 2nd line. If I try value zero on the entry, I get an error: value 0 is out of range of entry list file1.prn,file2.prn,file3.prn etc... if I put value 2, it show the last scroll from the bottom of the window. so I guess this will have to...

    How to create scrolling window for selecting of files

    I tried that, didn't work. Something needs to take place after the UPDATE code runs, which displays the files in the list box. If you figure it out, let me know.

    MFG/PRO Archive delete old data

    We looked at doing archives from QAD programs, but since these archives can grow very large if your not careful and crash your BI and/or AI. So we used a program called Archiver for MFG/Pro by a compay called BizzKeys. This was an excellent choice. We have our archived databases (x3) on a...
