Hi,

I am editing a VOC (by going ED VOC WOO001EXP from TCL prompt), which needs to span over more than one line - due to the limitation of the line length:

TCL

SELECT DAILY_JOB WITH CUST_CD=WOO001' AND WITH DATE GE LAST_WEEK

AND WITH JOB_STATUS NE 'K'

EXPORT ASCII WOO001EXP

Problem is that when this VOC is actually used it comes back and says that there is an unrecognised word found in the column name position. When given the option to edit the line, the line is truncated at the point when the line wraps.

If I run this exact same test straight through TCL then all is okay, it is just when running through VOC that it is having an issue.

I am thinking this is something to with the line wrapping. Is this the case? Is there some other code that I need to enter in here?

Thanks in advance for your assistance on this.

Regards

Troy

Edit your VOC item. With the cursor on the first of the two lines, use Ctrl-J to re-join the second line to the first.

You can turn line wrapping on and off using the Ctrl-W popup from within the EDIT window.

Bill is right. Just in case, when you are editing something, do a CTRL-W to turn the word rapping on or off. Also, I believe a single line can hold up to 256 characters. Don't worry if it goes off the screen, it's still there.

I hope this helps,

Michael Slack
