Good observation Art...!!! Wow... Ours is also set to *NOMAX... I have just detected three distinct methods of date storage in this file... See the following example... Date Time Program Name 1001005 83430 MP240 1001006 101057 MP240 102000 171455 MJ500 102000 210108 @CPIPGMJ 102100 1227 @CPIPGMJ 1023 11304 DB287 1023 73139 DB270 Last friday when I cleared the file I left only two (2) records in the file... Today there are twenty-two (22) records... Again - I do not know what this file is used for but I suspect that clearing old records will not cause any harm... "Heffner, Art" <AHeffne@PTS-TOOLS.COM> on 10/23/2000 08:53:28 AM Please respond to JBAUSERS-L@midrange.com To: "'JBAUSERS-L@midrange.com'" <JBAUSERS-L@midrange.com> cc: (bcc: Jeff Klipa/Harvard) Subject RE: IPGCFP4/@CPISYS : When I looked at our file it is *NOMAX and contains 138,000 records going back to August of 1996. Since we installed JBA in May of 1999, I must assume the older records were a gift from our JBA setup people. I also noticed that records output by program MR235 or CPIPGAO have the date in MMDDYY sequence and other programs put the date out in YYMMDD sequence (no century). This will make it a joy to purge! Art Heffner - Production Tool Supply -----Original Message----- From: Prill, Steve [mailto:sprill@rexairinc.com] Sent: Friday, October 20, 2000 3:17 PM To: 'jbausers-l@midrange.com' Subject: IPGCFP4/@CPISYS We received a file full error on the above file when attempting to submit MRP. Although it only contains 10,000+ records, they date back to 1996. It appears that the file is used to retrieve the current job number in various programs in MR, IN, AO, and PD applications. I believe its roots go back to the IPG (Interactive Program Generator) programs that JBA used to write several years ago. Does System 21 have a method of removing old records from this file? Or can I simply delete some of the old records and re-org the file? I hesitate to change the physical file to max. records = *NOMAX and let the file grow if the old data is not needed.
