Dear Mark:
What does the "file resiliency" mean?
I have Business Report Writer. I use SDUTIL when I change the structures
of our TurboImage data bases = very rarely. The Business Report Writes is
unable to use the System Dictionary, therefore I have to complete the
process by extracting the SD to a Report Dictionary.
It is cumbersome, is not it? The QueryCalc uses a simpler method to extact
the database structures.
We have Transact/V, but we do not use it because we got it too late, when
we had written the user interface in Pascal/V. Transact uses SD to handle
the form files, too.
Regards
Frank

There are 3 kinds of programming errors: syntactical, semantical and mystical.
The programmers have to suck up the users just as much as absolutely necessary.
