Hi Mike,

There is a new enhancement out, part of the "wishlist" voted on at the last
MAPICS conference, that makes is easier to create a new shared environment
from a MAPICS backup tape.  I also have developed a CL that I use regularly
at Fleetwood to (fairly) quickly use a MAPICS backup tape to create a
refresh of my production environment into my test environment.  It resets
the library lists, data areas for job queues, environment name, and so on.
If you'd like, I'd be pleased to e-mail it to you.  It's not a very big CL,
and after it's done, all the apps run correctly.  I used to use it every
Sunday (dump a duplicate of pre-MRP run production into the test system) -
now I do it every month-end to make it easy to rerun reports or pull
month-end detail out for the accountant(s) if they have any questions.

Hope to see you at the User Group meeting on the 12th!

Has anybody else had issues with updating an environment?  Every time I
attempt what should be a simple procedure it feels like I'm trying to
push water uphill!  In our test system, we try to keep a fairly
up-to-date copy of both our Mapics production environment(XA R6) and a
copy of our custom libraries.  When the environment update fails(as it
usually does) I end deleting and recreating the environment.  Since I
see nothing in the archive section of Midrange, I'm assuming I'm simply
missing something here.  Thanks for any help.
