Subject: Follow-Up: "Extract Fields" problem


As a follow-up and summary:

To avoid problem of fields with long text:
1.  Copy x:\WDT400\macros\extras.lx  to your macro folder.
2.  Edit your copy of the extras.lx macro.
    At about line 326, change the statement
          'insert 'stuff
      to  'insert 'LEFT(stuff,80)
3.  Exit and save the extras.lx macro.

To add "Extract Fields (LIST)" to right-click menu:
1.  Copy x:\WDT400\extras\profsys.lxu to your macro folder.
2.  Edit your copy of the profsys.lxu macro.
    Toward the end of the macro, add the statement
          'SET POPUPMENU.Extract_fields_(LIST) MACRO FIELDS'
    between the line beginning with "if wordpos(" and the "end" line.
    You will need to keep the apostrophes in the statement.
3.  Exit and save the profsys.lxu macro.

Note:  I couldn't get the right-click functionality to work until I rebooted
(actually, my system crashed - it IS Windows, after all).  You will have to
exit CodeEdit and possibly end the communications server before this works
for you.  YMMV.


Thanks to Scott Johnson!  He's my hero for the week!
Dave
