PUTTDREC in Dialogue Manager
I have tried to use PUTTDREC (new feature) in dialogue Manager, using WebFOCUS New Features 7.1.3 example (page 6-101) and I have any success. The output for puttdrec is always -1 which means that the filedef is not defined , but it is.
I have copy and pasted the example but it did not work again.

do you have any idea why is this happen?

tks in advance.

I didn't notice that new feature.
But I just tried it and it works. I get the return code of 0 on each line of the report, and when I FILEDEF to a permanent location, I can see the sequential file looking just like the example.
On my copy of the new features book it is on page 6-99 (DN9400232.0206)
I also got the Dialog Manager Version on the next page to run, by putting a -RUN after the FILEDEF (otherwise the DM commands run before the FILEDEF)


(Prod: WebFOCUS 7.7.03: Win 2008 & AIX hub/Servlet Mode; sub: AS/400 JDE; mostly Self Serve; DBs: Oracle, JDE, SQLServer; various output formats)

Tks I think it was a newbie mistake.

Thanks a lot it works Now Perfect.

I'd like to see this simple -RUN in the example of the new features but anyway its ok.
