Re: SQL from MS SQL Server

AAARRRGGGGHHHH!!!!!

Guess what it wasn't the "Legacy" machine..

Unbeknownst to anyone still here, the automagic process on the SQL server to
populate the "directory" actually does the following:

1. Imports the "Entire" Main Table from the iseries to the SQL Server
2. Imports all the secondary tables from the iSeries to the SQL Server
3. If "certain" criteria are met on the import of some of the secondary
tables then the SQL server does a DELETE from Main Table imported in step 1.
(the person in question met 1 of those criteria---> actually had 56
difference in the iSeries file and the Main table AFTER this step, all of
them met one of the "delete" criteria
4. The SQL Server then uses the really UGLY SQL  I mentioned earlier to
populate the directory using the tables imported to the SQL server.


YUCK!!!!!!

Well, change it to something iSeries will allow and mere humans can
