Hi Rich,
Almost.....
The easiest way to do this is the other way around.
1. Copy the QMSYS directory and all its subdirectories across.
2. Copy all the application account directories across.
3. Now install QM on the new system.
By doing it in this order, you don't have to worry about what parts of the

1) clean install of new qmsys, so services etc are installed on the
new server

2)windows copy existing qmsys to new c:\qmsys (overwriting)
so catalog space etc is retained

3)move applications to their new destination (yes same location will
be used)
L:\directory name

?? will the indexes require rebuilding/remapping like universe?

Hi Rich,
QMSYS needs to be installed in a position where it can be seen by all users.
Copy the application account directories unchanged from the old system,
preferably keeping their pathnames unchanged.
The only component in QMSYS that needs updating is the ACCOUNTS file. You
should be able to copy this from teh old system too. If you have changed any

I have two application that needs to be moved to a client's new 2008
server.

I searched the archives/etc and did not find any information related
to the recommened method of transfer.

My 1st confusion is where to install qmsys since the 2008 server will
have multiple virtual servers defined

Hi Darryl,
The menu itself should preferably go in the VOC butit can be put in another
file with a remote pointer (R-type record) in the VOC instead. This latter
approach has the advantage of allowing a central menu file that can be
accessed from multiple accounts if that is useful.
To make the menu display when the user logs in, simply reference it from the

QM uses the MD/VOC item 'LOGIN' whereas mvBASE, D3 would have used the MD item 'ACCOUNTNAME' (ie whatever the account name you just logged in to)

This is my first post.......I am an OLD PICK guy....and we used PROC's
to create a menu....OpenQM would prefer that PROC's not be
used......so I used the MED tool to create my starting menu. Now I
don't know where to place the menu..... I need it to display

You may be interested in NebulaXLite which builds XML for
spreadsheets _exactly_ as you have described. However, that
format is for more than just definition of rows and columns: It's
faciliates borders, colors, cell shading, fonts, merging of
cells, width and height settings, comments, data type details,

Hi Ed,
Extended character set support remains one of those highly desireable items
that has yet to find its way to the top of the wish list. Whether we do
UTF-8, Unicode or some other variant is open to discussion. There are strong
arguments for a fixed size character in memory but equally strong arguments

Unicode UTF-8 workarounds

ejahn3...@yahoo.com (Edward Jahn) — Mon, 11 Nov 2009 15:01:43 UT

This is a contribution to a discussion that has come and gone a few times in this group – Unicode support.
I have been working with Unicode UTF-8, and found some things that might be useful for those who want to use it. This applies to Windows, which is probably the most difficult environment, but the one that I am currently forced to work with.
