Greetings,
I don't believe I can do what I want to do in Suprtool, but there
are far better minds on this list than me...so maybe there's hope.
I have a self-describing file, created using Suprtool, it looks like
this;
PART-NUMBER
PART-DESCRIPTION
Lets call that file PARTFILE
Now, using $LOOKUP, I want to look in my PARTS dataset for
a matching PART-NUMBER. When true, I want to UPDATE
the item DESCRIPTION with PART-DESCRIPTION, from PARTFILE.
I think it would look like this...
GET PARTS
IF $LOOKUP(blah, blah, blah)
UPDATE
EXT DESCRIPTION=PART-DESCRIPTION
Does that work? I don't want to just "try it and see" for obvious
reasons.
Thanks,
Ernie
