Re: iSphere's source search

I second Paul's request for the member description.

But even without that, this feature is most welcome!

Thanks Frank and the team.

Thanks Frank. I've upgraded both the client and server side to v1.4 and I am happy to report that the excel export for the search results works fine for me. (Fingers are crossed for the "create member filter..." option in the near future.) One thing: In the exported excel file, is it too much trouble to get the source member description? It would be useful, but not essential.

I also tried out the spooled file viewer, and viewing plain spooled files works great (seems to be quicker than other methods, too!), but we have a ridiculous system here where a windows machine "prints" a word document as a postscript file (or maybe it is a PCL file) which is copied to a stream file on the IFS which is then read and printed line by line to a *USERASCII spooled file (thanks Scott Klement... I think), and those spooled files are not viewable in your system. This isn't a huge problem, as they are not viewable from the OUTQ either, but I was hoping against hope that the option was now available. Do you think this is just a matter of writing my own conversion routine, or is it just an impossibility to view some kinds of spooled files?


-Paul.

@ Paul

With the new iSphere Version 1.4.0 it is now possible to export the search results to Excel. The "Create member filter from the search results" stuff will be realized later.
