Rich,
Thank you so much for your answer! Much appreciated! My job now actually prints things in batch!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Now if we could get M.B. Foster and HP to put that little gem in their premier products, we'd have a winner instead of pages of blanks. Actually, M.B. Foster did fix their ODBC listener in version 7; maybe Inetd is fixed in 7.5?
Again, thanks.
Douglas

John,
Might see if this is related:
Through this at google:
printf output in batch group:comp.sys.hp.mpe
The 2nd entry from 1999 from Kevin Miller contains the following:
(chopped/snipped wildly)
In session mode, C opens
stdin as line buffered
stdout as line buffered
stderr as unbuffered
In job mode
stdin as full buffered
stdout as full buffered
stderr as unbuffered
To correct this ( assuming you think this is a problem as I do
), you need
to add
setvbuf ( stdout, NULL, _IOLBF, 0 );
Please lookup the call in your HP C/iX Library reference manual
!
Not sure if this is the answer, but buffering has bitten me a few times
too.

Subject: PRINTF statements in "C"
Fellow Listers:
The PRINTF command compiled using the HP/iX "C" compiler outputs only
spaces when run in Batch. Can anyone cast some light on this phenomenon
as I have page upon page of blank lines in my MBFoster ODBC Job logs-
quite useless when trying to debug or determine what's happening.
TIA
