<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Thank you for the hint, but the problem is that the
ISO file apparently has no % character: In the export form -from DOS version- I
selected the # character as record delimiter and ~ (Alt+126) character as field
delimiter. (The % character is only used in data entry worksheets, but it does
not appear in the export ISO files, or at least I cannot see it - I sent some
sample ISO file in a previous mail, so you can check).</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>I think that you can edit the ISO file with a text editor and replace
the % character by another one such as the & character. I am not

class=gmail_quote>Dear Egbert and Jean-Claude<BR><BR>many thanks for your
valuable hints. It seems now to be working ...! :-)<BR><BR>Egbert,
you' re perfectly right: the indexing technique 0 (instead of 5) in field
26 in the FST is a real mistake.<BR>I didn't even notice that in the JISIS
dictionary there was no entry "Z=xxx" (in the sample I sent).<BR>The very
strange fact is that the (wrong) syntax (26, 0, mpu,"Z="V26) in the FST
worked perfectly for more than 20 years in hundreds and hundreds of
libraries using TECAdb in the CDS/ISIS-WinISIS versions (!?) (in
facts you can easily check that in the sample ISIS "DOS" version I
attached to the mail, you can find all the "Z=" terms in the Inverted
file, despite the wrong syntax!).<BR><BR>Anyway, I changed the FST as you
suggested and tried your test-PFT and it works!<BR>Now I'll try to change
all the PFT's in a correct way (and may be I will need your help again,
because now I'm getting some parsing error... :-( )<BR><BR>Thanks
again<BR><BR>(I'm still having problems with the repeatable subfields, as
I told you...I understand that this is probably due somehow to a certain
"misuse" of the repetitions)<BR><BR>Kind regards<BR>bye

I only wanted to make clear why there was no immediate reply.<BR>Now, I
checked your PFT and I think the problem is with the syntax.<BR><BR>First
of all I changed the line creating the 'Z=' entries, by making it
technique 5 (instead of 0) :<BR>26 5 '/Z=/',mpu,(V26/)<BR>as before that I
didn't see any Z= entries in your dictionary.<BR><BR>Then I created the
following PFT for testing the REF-function (e.g. called 'testref')
:<BR>(if p(v27) then<BR>REF(L('Z='v27),<BR>'V1='v1' ',<BR>'V26='v26'
',<BR>'V29='v29/'<BR>')<BR>else 'no references'
fi)<BR><BR>and the output for MFN 2 is, in my opinion correct
:<BR>V1=^aInferno V26=005555 V29=1<BR>V1=^aPurgatorio V26=005556
V29=2<BR>V1=^aParadiso V26=005557 V29=3<BR><BR>Based on this output from
the basic model PFT for the REF-function, I think you should be able to
correct your PFT with correct output.<BR>If you don't manage, let us
know.<BR>Egbert de Smet<BR>Universiteit

your kind interest.<BR>I am perfectly aware that you -and many people in
the ISIS community- are<BR>working mostly on a "voluntary basis" for the
ISIS project, and all of us<BR>are<BR>very grateful to you for all the
efforts (and the great work) you have done<BR>and still are doing for
us.<BR>Therefore I apologize if I gave to you the impression to ask (or
worse<BR>"claim"...!) for a quick solution: it was absolutely far from my
intentions.<BR>I just wanted to share a problem with people having a much
deeper knowledge<BR>than mine, thinking that maybe other people
encountered -and solved- the<BR>same problems,<BR>and I sent the files
attached to my previous mail because I was asked to do<BR>so by someone.
In the last days I shared with friends living near me the<BR>great
surprise and the honour of getting an (unespected) answer from you
to<BR>my emails.<BR><BR>(I can simply add that working on a "voluntary
basis" applies somehow also<BR>to me-at a much lower level, as I was asked
to solve this problem -on a free<BR>basis, of course, as usual...- by
others who updated their machines to<BR>64-bit ones, and this is not "my"
database - I am only a school Math<BR>teacher, with a little ISIS
knowledge due to many years of usage.)<BR><BR>Therefore it is not my
intention to abuse your kindness and your time, not<BR>to put anyone in a
hurry to solve my problems, please trust me. English is<BR>not my native
language, and maybe some of my expressions are not a
correct<BR>translation of my real thoughts and feelings.<BR><BR>Kind

fully check your problem (which is in fact the 'repeatable<BR>subfield'
problem, something which originally was NOT envisaged
by<BR>ISIS-technology) a careful setup is required and this simply takes
some more<BR>time to be set aside for finding out. None of us is full-time

issues, it is all<BR>about voluntary time and efforts, hoping to sustain
the ISIS-technology.<BR>When we discussed the REF-function for J-ISIS the
idea was to fully copy its<BR>functionality from WinISIS (in fact such
'run-time'-on-demand<BR>semi-relational capability is something other
database technology is envying<BR>ISIS for), so that for sure should be
tested carefully and if found wrong<BR>corrected. Maybe your data provide
us with interesting testing data, that<BR>can be useful indeed.<BR>So,
some patience please.<BR><BR>Egbert de Smet<BR>Universiteit
