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.
Note: we aren't actually updating the records in the file. Just passing
them to a web service.
New idea:
Suppose we have a data area. When a job is ready to process a record, it
reads and locks the data area, SETGTs the file to the record after the
one in the data area, and READs it, and writes the key of the record it
found back out to the data area.
That would (I hope) guarantee that regardless of the number of jobs
working on the file, and regardless of the number of records in the
file, each record would get processed exactly once.
