ISQL and IDS 9.40

Posted By: Schmitz, Rob B [IBM Contractor for Sprint]
Date: Thursday, 14 July 2005, at 9:03 a.m.

Hello All

I received an email from one of our developers this morning describing
an issue with ISQL. We recently upgraded from 9.21.FC4 to 9.40.FC6. We
are running under HP-UX 11.0. The developers, who are now primarily
support personnel due to outsourcing, have always used ISQL extensively.
In particular, they use forms extensively. It has been some time since
I've used ISQL and the developer's email to me describes the problem
very well:

--------------------------------------------------------

We are seeing some real odd things with the ISQL utility under Informix
9.40. We are no longer able to type in the name of an SQL script or FORM
or REPORT when trying to select one to run. We instead now have to
scroll through them all and highlight the one we want and press enter.
This is only a problem because we have 1000's of SQL scripts and forms
and most of the team has them all memorized by now. So scrolling though
1000's of selections screen by screen takes some time.

Here is an example. I go into ISQL and do a form run.

RUN FORM >>
Choose a form with Arrow Keys, or enter a name, then press Return.

--------------------- uds ---------------------- Press CTRL-W for Help
--------

acl hlp lt_choice lu_demp lu_dsord lu_mclsv
app jc lt_edt_cbl lu_demtp lu_dsotp lu_mcrew
avsd ld_com lt_edtclo lu_deqp lu_dsp_cls lu_mcstp
bd ld_input lt_soclo lu_dexp lu_dstcd lu_mdue

grsg ls_rtstupd lu_dcstp lu_dskll lu_mald lu_msord
hhb ls_rtupdt lu_ddbnm lu_dsnlc lu_mapt ...

acl

I then type in the name of the form that I want to run which is tsk and
press enter to run it and get the following error.

FORM: Run Modify Generate New Compile Drop Exit
Use a form to enter data or query a database.

--------------------- uds ---------------------- Press CTRL-W for Help
--------



No screen forms are available. Use the Generate or New option to create
one.=20
acl


But if I scroll down to that form and press enter, it works.=20

But... If I scroll down to that form and then also type in the name of
that form and press enter, it still errors out. So, it seems like the
ISQL program does not like anything actually typed into the selection
screens anymore. Only scrolling to the item and pressing enter.

Can you help with this. While not crippling, it is quite bothersome.

--------------------------------------------------------

Has anyone else dealt with this problem?

Thanks

Rob Schmitz
