[Solved]range table tablename where upper(physicalname)

Posted on by Sridhar Narayanan 1,104

Hi,

I am facing a strange scenario in setting range on the records.

I am not able to set the range or some table to fill in the scrollinw window. Following is the statement I am using to set range.

range table is_Doctor_Master where upper(physicalname(is_Doctor_Name of table is_Doctor_Master))+ " LIKE '%"+ upper((L) Search_String) + "%'"; 

Similar kind of range statement is working fine for some other table, but I am not able to figure how the statement is not working for the above mentioned table.

More Info

1. The above statement is worign fine in my local environment where the sql collation is SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS but in the stage environment the collation is Arabic Binary.

Please guide me to resolve this issue.

Thanks,

Sri

    Hi Sri,

    Have you considered using Dexterity to create and fill the scrolling window?

    Kind regards,

    Yes, after setting range I am filling the scrolling window.

    My requirement is to list all doctor info which contains the search string. That is why I am usign LIKE in range statemet.

    When I debug the code, it seems that sometimes system is not recognizing upper(physicalname ........).

    I want to simulate Dex query simillar to select  * from Doc10000 where upper(docname) like upper('%xxx%')

    Thanks,

    Sri.

    Hi,

    The issue is resolved.

    Instead of using range table tablename where upper(physicalname(field name))....we have to use

    range table tablname where "upper(technical field name).....

    For eg:-  select  * from Doc10000 where upper(docname) like upper('%xxx%') can be simulated in Dex as

    range table Doc10000 where "upper(DocName) like " '%" + upper(Search_String) + "%'";

    Thanks,

    Sri.

    I am not sure if this will work, but try this:

     

    range table is_Doctor_Master where upper(physicalname(is_Doctor_Name of table is_Doctor_Master)) + " LIKE '%" + upper('(L) Search_String') + "%' COLLATE ARABIC_BIN;";

    Note the addition of the COLLATE clause to the range criteria. However, if your doctors' names are stored in Arabic then I am afraid none of this will work. Take a look at my article Microsoft Dynamics GP and SQL Server Collations for more information.
