Ashley,

It appears that google may have fixed the problem.

Hi Eugene,
Can you give an example where the Google search falls down? Are you
searching through the plain ol' google.com, or from the google-group?

How to search this google group

eppic...@yahoo.com (eppick77) — Wed, 12 Dec 2009 14:25:57 UT

Google appears to have problems when it comes to searching the posts.

Is there somewhere else on the net that I could go to search this and
other google groups that has a better search capability.

There are times that I need to go back and see what people in the
group have said about a subject. I just find it very difficult to

OK. I've had this problem before ...

Look in the ERR.H item in the SYSCOM file. This gives the error
translations.

Error 3007 is 'No VOC record'.

So, looking back at your original post, you have defined a VOC entry -
but there is no dictionary component. So create a dictionary:

CREATE.FILE DICT JUNK

Hi Brian/Cedric,
We do something very much like this. We are investigating some performance
issue in management of large strings but the general perception of our users
appears to be that we do not have a significant problem.

Another couple of things to try:

Open a DOS box from Windows and try to list the shared folder using a
DIR command.

If that doesn't work, you've got general networking issues.

Assuming that does work, try the same thing from the QM command
prompt:

! DIR path_to_sharedfolder

If that works, then you should be able to access the data from

In general, multi-value systems can run run into speed issues when
dealing with large dynamic arrays - but it depends on the
optimisations built into the language and on how you are using it.

Long, long ago, in a galaxy far away, MV databases used to count down
the dynamic array whenever you accessed the variable. This made many

It is an item we read and then on a very large attribute we are doing
locate, insert and delete.

Hi Cedric,
Please explain a bit more about how you update this variable. We regularly
work with data of this size and bigger with no problems.

Very large variable

cfonta...@spidmail.net (Cedric Fontaine) — Thu, 11 Nov 2009 15:34:07 UT

Hello,

We're working on very large variables (300 000 bytes) and it seems too
heavy for QM to work on this large variable and so time is exponential
when adding data to this big variable.

Is there any optimization on QM part we can do to work faster with
big items ?

c...@swbell.net (CDMI - Steve T) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 20:56:53 UT

why set a 'mapped drive' ?
why not just:

READV MAPPED.DRIVE FROM PARAMETER.FILE,MAPPED-DRIVE,1 ELSE
MAPPED.DRIVE = "\\CDMI-WEB\CDMIWEB_F\QMSYS"
END
**** something like that above... then
OPENPATH MAPPED.DRIVE TO FILE ELSE
CRT \Could not open \:MAPPED.DRIVE:\ status \:STATUS():\ os.error \:OS.ERROR()

Hi Gary,
Try a simple program that attempts to open the file and print the values of
STATUS() and OS.ERROR() in the ELSE clause.

Hi Martin,

I had already set NETFILES to 1 (or does it need to be set to 2) with
the same results.
Anything else I should be looking at?

Thanks,

Gary

Hi Gary,
This should work fine but the NETFILES configuration parameter must be set
to enable remote access (See the QM Reference Manual). This is because there
are potential locking issues that QM cannot resolve.
