Re: Scott K's CSV code

Well I've been changing things and the first time I run my CSVDEMO5 program
it runs great.

Then next time the test data is blank.

I posted my code to http://code.midrange.com/421c807d3a.html

My test program looks like this. the fields acct, etc, are defined like in
Scott's example

peFldData = '1,"Art T","123 main","jackson","NJ"';

CSV_getfldX(peFldData: temp: %size(temp));
CSV_getfldX(peFldData: name: %size(name));
CSV_getfldX(peFldData: addr: %size(addr));
CSV_getfldX(peFldData: city: %size(city));
CSV_getfldX(peFldData: state: %size(state));
acct = %dec( temp: 4: 0);


If I run it twice, I get an error that temp isn't a valid value for %dec.
That's because peFldData is blank

Any help appreciated. Jack

All:



Scott's CSV service program and demos are awesome.



How hard would it be to add an option to read a regular DB file like a 80
character EDI file delimited with asterisks?



The CSV_Getfld function would have to be copied and changed to accept a
string instead of a file handle. We already add CR/LF to our inbound EDI
files so continuing over two records wouldn't be required.



I'm going to start digging, hoping someone has done this before.



Thanks Scott and all.
