actually there are many ways. The easiest I've used takes a bit
of time to set up (not that much really) and then is wonderfully
easy thereafter.
There is a program called DOWNLOAD available at ftp.cedarville.edu
which works with UD and UV under Unix or Windows and Information
under Primos. It can extract MV data to CSV, fixed format, HTML, XML
and several other formats. I just found it this morning and have not
had a chance to play with it, so I cannot tell you any more than
that.

Hi Darrell,

OK,

Small problem. Although it seems extremely difficult in PICK/UniVerse.
I just need some basic code or some recall statements (LIST?) to output
the data in comma delimited format. That is it!

The output could also be in any format such that I can read it into
MySQL or Excell (again the comma delimted is fine!)

I am very very new to Pick/Universe databases. HELP!

Along with the other suggestions given, you might also consider
upgrading to QM http://www.ladybridge.com/ This seems to be the one MV
provider who wants to produce functionality to meet todays needs.

This (CSV) is a small requirement and as many have pointed out there is
a solution available if you don't want to write your own.

QM currently has a very nice 'DELIMITER' keyword that will produce nice
tab and comma delimited reports. Martin tells me that in the 2.2-12
release there will be a 'CSV' keyword that will produce reports
compliant with the IETF's mime draft for CSV format.

After years of dealing with PS/RD, Ladybridge's responsiveness has
really impressed me.

HTH,
-Tom
