<DIV dir=ltr>Dear Giuzzo,
<DIV><BR></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 sure
but it may work.</DIV>

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

Files -andPFTFormats<BR><BR><BR>Hello again,<BR><BR>no need to apologize, 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

[Isis-users] JISIS - Problems Importing ISO Files -andPFTFormats<BR><BR>Dear
Egbert, Dear Jean-Claude<BR><BR>Thank you for 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 regards<BR>giuzzo<BR><BR>----- Original

-andPFTFormats<BR><BR><BR>Hello,<BR><BR>in order to 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 freed from<BR>other professional
responsibilities to deal with such 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
