I have a Progress database that I'm performing an ETL from. One of the tables that I'm reading from does not have a unique key on it, so I need to access the ROWID to be able to uniquely identify the row. What is the syntax for accessing the ROWID in Progress? I understand there are problems with using ROWID for row identification, bu...
There is a GUI ADM2 Progress v9 application using AppServer. It needs to give users an ability to view MS Excel files stored on the AppServer. So far it: Pulls .xls file from AppServer to a local drive. Fires up a copy of MS Excel and opens the file. The problem is that the temporary file on the local drive needs to be removed once...
My company has a 3rd party application that runs on a Progress database. I've been building an application on top of their database using an ODBC connection. One of the "quirks" of Progress is that it doesn't honor SQL column widths, so it will allow 100 characters in a column defined as a varchar(50). When reading this data via ODBC,...
.NET newbie here... I'd like to make a button in a Windows form that displays a progress or "cooldown" effect. That is, when the button is pressed, it becomes disabled. As some event or timer is progressing, the button shows the progress graphically. When the progress is finished, the graphic completes and the button becomes enabled. ...
I've struggled for the last couple of months to come up with some clean code to report progress to a user. Everything always seems to boil down to: ReportProgress("Starting Task 1"); doTask1(); ReportProgress("Task 1 is done"); ReportProgress("Starting Task 2"); doTask2(); ReportProgress("Task 2 is done"); //etc... where report progr...
Progress databases allow for a Character[x] datatype. How can I write to a particular x using C# and ODBC? Please do not answer unless you understand the what Character[x] means... it is not a string (array of chars), it is an array of strings (which are arrays of chars). ...

A lot of modules I use import entire files into memory or trickle a file's contents in while they process it. I'm wondering if there's any way to track this sort of loading progress? Possibly a wrapper class that takes a callback? ...
What is the best way to update a label on a windows forms application while processing. I have a loop that does some processing to files on the users system when the user clicks a button. foreach (System.IO.FileInfo f in dir.GetFiles("*.txt")) { // Do processing // Show progress bar // Update Label on Form, "f.Name is done pro...
I'm working on an application that makes a lot of HTTP "Web Services" requests, some of which can be rather large XML files. Right now the HTTP request is made on a second thread, so the GUI/Form is not locked up. But it is still unable to give the user feedback as to the progress of the request. I've been using the HTTPWebRequest clas...
I've seen in Oracle 10g a feature that estimates the remaining time for a long running query and I was wondering if this is possible too in SQL Server (at least in 2008?)? Suppose I have a very large table with tens of millions of rows (well indexed etc. etc.) and I need to search for some particular rows. I know it will take a lot of t...
I'd like to be able to show the progress of a file copy operation when copying files using Ruby (currently using FileUtils.cp) I've tried setting the verbose option to true but that just seems to show me the copy command issued. I'm running this script from command line at the moment so ideally I'd like to be able to present something l...
I'm trying to make a progress bar that starts at 0%, and takes 5 seconds to get to 100%. The progress bar will begin to go up as soon as Button1 is clicked. Any advice? I looked on Google, but that gave me nothing good on this sort of thing. Also, at 0%, there should be a label that says "Waiting...", when the progress bar starts, it sh...

I'm trying to set up an ODBC client driver for Progress 10.1b. I was able to install the client software that is required, but there is apparently also an ODBC.reg script file that needs to be run to correctly set up the registry in order for me to use the ODBC drivers. Can anyone point me to where I would find this script? Or tell ...
I am looking for the best way to calculate ETA of an operation (IE: file download) using a linear progress information. Lets say that I have the following method that gets called: void ReportProgress(double position, double total) { ... } I have a couple of ideas: calculate the progress in a set amount of time (like last 10s) a...

I'm using a ProgressEvent in Flash to determine how long something will take to download. I've got this: progress = event.target.bytesLoaded/event.target.bytesTotal; to set a percentage. After some scratching of my head, I did a trace on the two values - and it turns out that "event.target.bytesTotal" is always equaling zero. I ca...

I am an ETL developer and I deal with a lot of data that needs to be processed from one form to the other before it can be loaded into tables. Therefore, most of the scripts that I work with, at some point, have to move a file from one place to the other. We are a windows shop. I was wondering if there was a way to see how much time a mo...
