Dev Studio 7.1.3/Production Server 7.1.1 issue
I have developed a procedure that works great on my desktop which is 7.1.3, however when I copy the procedure code over to a procedure on the Server 7.1.1 I get promopted for a value for a "EVAL" as well as my Start Date and End Date. On my Desktop, I only have a Start Date and End Date and NO "EVAL".

In my GRAPH FILE

I have the following:


ON TABLE HOLD AS G&Cnt FORMAT SVG


In my TABLE FILE I have:


TYPE=REPORT, IMAGE=G&Cnt.EVAL.SVG,POSITION=(2 3.5),SIZE=(8 5), $


This is all in a REPEAT and I end up spitting out 36 images on 36 pages of a PDF file. My only fear is that 7.1.1 cannot handle this and 7.1.3 can.

Anyone have any knowledge of what I am talking about?

Thanks

Try changing the word EVAL to a single dot (.) so there are three dots in a row. I do not see any reason why it is necessary to EVAL in the code because the way the variable is being used does not seem to necessitate an EVAL.


Thanks!

neuro,

I assume &Cnt is defined in the code at some point, probably a -REPEAT loop. Make sure the case is the same. Meaning, &Cnt is not the same as &cnt and is not the same as &CNT. Make sure &CNT is in all caps wherever it is referenced or at least spelled the same.

If it is spelled the same in all places, make sure it is being set before you reference it.


Thanks!

Neuro,

What happens if you do this with a TABLE request instead of a GRAPH request?

Scratch what I just said, it makes no sense.

It should work. The reason you would get prompted for EVAL is that it is looking for a value for &Cnt and thinks EVAL is the prompt text. If you post your whole fex I can look further into this for you.

I am getting ready to test this on a 7.1.4 box as soon as my request to add a metafile is complete. I do not have the luxury of admining the Web Focus Server!
