You are right, repeatable char is only used in the data entry
worksheet, because the repetition feature is managed by the
directory section of the Record,<br>
Anyway, you always can edit an ISO record as a text file,<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

<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>

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>
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>

yesterday I sent this mail to you, with some

was not so big, about<br>
160kB...). So I decided to cut the old conversations

attached to this mail you'll find some files (in
.zip format) - 2 export<br>
.ISO files and the TECA db structure, and an

Thaks again for your help.<br>
