Hi Jim,
Thanks very much !
For some reason my brain did not see the TIME WINDOW option.
Will give that a try.

Yes, they did go to the ERR DB. I forgot about being able to setup an alert.
I’ll try that.
Thanks!

FYI…
I ran a test (CL 6.1.2.0) with an active thread using a tps proc that called a TABLE (tbllookup).
Simply changing the TABLE itself DID NOT pickup the REFRESHED TABLE for any subsequent calls to the tps proc.
Then I ran a PURGE CACHES (GUI) from the still active thread and then it DID pickup the REFRESHED TABLE.

Thanks,
Tom

Does the PURGE CACHES function work to refresh a TABLE called from a tps proc ?

Thanks,

Hello All,
To be clear, re my post from 3/9/15…
Actually, I was just referring to 3 of my interfaces (out of 50+) that
I should have coded 100% TCL from the beginning, back in 2010.
All of them have a common source/destination and are manipulated similarly.

These 3 are extremely complex (in my opinion) with complicated
msg filtering,…Read more

Hi Richard,
Thanks for trying to share !
I do already have TCL written to handle my interface.
TPS TCL procs are so much less of a hassle and as Michael mentioned-
no variants.

Hi Michael,
Thanks for your insight !
Yes, I should have done 100% TCL long ago too but old habits die hard.
I do try to build multiple procs for later code-reuse…Read more

Jim,
Good idea!
Thank you.

At least in my version of CL if I add =x20 to every other line on the CONCAT input side, it changes it to “= “, which makes it non-obvious.

Hi Carson and Jim,
I attached the original XLATE module.
I did not have a SPACE char between the CONCAT literals.

But per your suggestion Jim, I added =x20 between the items and the result was what is expected and solves my problem !

Thanks,
Tom
