<p>Alternatively, and maybe somehow simpler, you could produce a list in a text-file from the terminal with mx :
<br>
</p>
<p>mx mydb "pft=if a(v76) then MFN,/ fi" now -all >a76.txt</p>
<p>where 'mydb' is the name of your database. The file a76.txt will contain, each on a new line, the MFNs of the records without a v76. </p>
<p>This command has to be run from a terminal prompt. If the mx-executable is not in your default path, copy it (e.g. from C:\ABCD\www\cgi-bin\ansi or in Linux : /opt/ABCD/www/cgi-bin/ansi) to the folder in which you are working. Then in Linux you have to add
'./' in front of mx, so : /.mx <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>If you prefer to get this result from within the ABCD-interface, try creating the PFT with contents
<br>
</p>
<p> if a(v76) then MFN,/ fi</p>
<p>and using this PFT in the 'reports' function you can as well produce the same list. This has the advantage that you can also select e.g. Excel to drop the list into a spreadsheet, or Word for a Word-document, instead of sending the output to the screen or
a simple text-file. <br>
