I suspect a client has @fm or @vm in some record keys.

Can anyone paste the code up here that gets rid of them.

<QUOTE>Barry,



I do something like the following to test for delims in record keys:



OPEN "" TO IN.FILE



CLEARSELECT

@REC.COUNT=0

EOF=0

SELECT IN.FILE

LOOP

READNEXT ID ELSE EOF=1

UNTIL EOF

FMIX=INDEX(ID,@FM,1)

VMIX=INDEX(ID,@VM,1)

SVMIX=INDEX(ID,@SVM,1)

IF FMIX OR VMIX OR SVMIX THEN

***do something here like delete or copy to another key value

END

REPEAT

STOP



You can obviously get fancier and more complex, but that should do it for you.

<QUOTE>Place a DELIMKEY symbolic in DICT.VOC with formula=



RETURN INDEX(@ID,@FM,1) + INDEX(@ID,@SVM,1) + INDEX(@ID,@VM,1) ...



Then at TCL (with your bad file called SUSPECT.FILE):



LIST SUSPECT.FILE WITH DELIMKEY ] 0 



Should show the culprits (perhaps with keys split on different lines)



Then (in an AREV developer) at TCL on one line type:-



EVAL OPEN 'MYFILE' TO X THEN READ REC FROM X, "BAD":@FM:"KEY" THEN WRITE REC TO X, "GOODKEY"
