In the DD (PxPlus V14) I changed the record structure from
IOLIST BIC$:[LEN(11)],BLZ$:[LEN(8)],BEZ$,BEZ_KURZ$,TYP:[LEN(1)],MARKER
to
IOLIST BIC$:[LEN(11)],BLZ$:[LEN(8)],BEZ$,BEZ_KURZ$,IMPORT_DAT,ANL_DAT,ANL_BEN$,AEND_DAT,AEND_BEN$,LOE_DAT,LOE_BEN$,LCKD
After a click on "Update File" the new field IMPORT_DAT contained the old content from TYP and MARKER. Is this the designed behavior?
-
When you change the iolist as you have, the Update File process starts by offering you three update options:
- Convert Existing data - This would rewrite your data based on the prior/new data dictionaries. You would lose the Typ and Marker fields, as well as their data
- Clear existing data - This would purge the data from the file
- Rewrite data dictionary only - This would rewrite the internal file dictionary, but not touch the data, so the old data would now align with the new fields.
Based on your results, it looks like option 3 was selected.

I selected option #1. And I can reproduce it.
That change also removes key #1. Perhaps this is the reason for the failed conversion.

If you can reproduce it, it would be great if you could go to our Helpdesk system at:
https://helpdesk2.pvxplus.com/ (https://helpdesk2.pvxplus.com/)
Create a ticket and for the issue and supply a before and after version of the file (with a few records) so we can duplicate the issue here.
This would be greatly appreciated.
