<QUOTE>
I'm the new kid on the block and trying to get my AREV App moved to OI32. I've encountered a couple of (immediate) problems that perhaps one of you old hands can help with:



Popup:

In converting a popup that displays a list of records, I get the row number and client name, but the date of birth displays wierd characters and none of the column heading show up. Tech supports suggests I let the format$ do the date formatting. Tried it; same results. Here's my format entry:



pop_def=1:@svm:16:@svm:'L':@svm:'':@svm:'Client No':@vm:2:@svm:35:@svm:'L':@svm:'':@svm:'Name':@vm:3:@svm:12:@svm:'L':@svm:'D4/':@svm:'DOB'



Anyone see something I'm missing?



PCPERFORM:

I can't seem to find the replacement for this valuable AREV feature. Anyone know where to look?



Thanks.

Jim

<QUOTE>Jim,



In the popup you have...

pop_def=1:@svm:16:@svm:'L':@svm:'':@svm:'Client No':@vm:2:@svm:35:@svm:'L':@svm:'':@svm:'Name':@vm:3:@svm:12:@svm:'L':@svm:'D4/':@svm:'DOB'



The subvalues are aligned as follows...

1 - field.

2 - width

3 - text justification

4 - heading justification

5 - oconv

6 - heading



You are missing number 4. So maybe it should look like this...

pop_def=1:@svm:16:@svm:'L':@SVM:'C':@svm:'':@svm:'Client No':@vm:2:@svm:35:@svm:'L':@svm:'':@SVM:'C':@svm:'Name':@vm:3:@svm:12:@svm:'L':@SVM:'C':@svm:'D4/':@svm:'DOB'



Now the PCPERFORM...

Try using "UTILITY". Kinda like this...



RESULT=UTILITY('RUNWIN',"COMMAND.COM /C DIR C:\")

<QUOTE>Thanks. Discovered the OI Help manual is wrong and that's what I was trying to run.



I'll try using Utility.



Thanks much.
