The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
After doing further research on this I think you're better off either
using
http://www.scottklement.com/rpg/ifs.html
to create a tab delimited file in the ifs by reading this MF lf in RPGLE,
or,
use his examples on writing directly to excel at
http://faq.midrange.com/data/cache/533.html
Because, what I am sure you are looking for is something like:
A B
001 CompanyA
001 Dallas
002 Fort Worth
002 CompanyB
001 Fort Wayne
003 CompanyC
001 Kendallville
002 Avilla
where column A could be either company number or ship to number and column
b could be company name or ship to name.
Or some gyration of this.
Avoid CSV or comma seperated variable, because of concerns about embedded
commas in names like My Company, Inc. There's workarounds but why take
the hassle?
Excel can easily read a tab delimited. Try it. I used Notepad and typed
in the above columns and replaced the space with a tab. Did a save as
.txt. Exited Notepad. Then used Windows Explorer to find it. And said
Open With Excel and it did a fine job. And, if one row has more or less
columns, no problem. Try that with notepad and then excel again.
