Translating with DrWatson… this can take a few seconds the first time.
This is a genuine, complex translation. DrWatson protects commands, error codes, and log output while naturally translating the surrounding text. It’s translated once and saved.

Hello Informix gurus.
I noticed that the reports produced by dynamic 4gl on the windows platform
is
still in Unix format.
We have dynamic 4gl version 3.0 and IDS 7.31 running on WinNT 4.0
The reports are generated by <START REPORT TO "file.txt">
1. Viewing the reports on notepad, some reports come out as one looong
line..(no cr's)
2. Some other reports come out fine but when viewed with vi (for dos), one
can
see control-M characters. (these control chars don't appear in notepad or
wordpad).
However, such inconsistency is making it difficult for us to choose what
type
of software to use for viewing these reports on screen. We can't even use
FGLPAGER (which comes with dynamic 4gl) because when it sees a control-m
character, it repeats the line above it..
so if the report is
Company Name
Report Title
Column Header
Row1
FGLPAGER renders this as
Company Name
Report Title
Report Title
Column Header
Column Header
Row1
----- Has anyone experienced the same? How do I "force" the report format to
be in DOS text format rather than unix?
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks
