I am currently using BAAN and in my script, I am trying to update a Oracle table field to a literal value. Such as:
tccom910.activity = "Before"
the tccom910.activity is a string with a length of 10
I am new to BAAN programming. I have tried setting another domain to Before, and then set the table field to it (tccom910 = com.activity).

It does not like anything. Help!!! :confused:

Hello,
You shoud check the valid characters to use on your domain.
Another option is create a new domain to store your label. Also not forget to convert to DD an CDD for this domain before you use on your program.

Good luck.

tccom910.mcs.user = logname$
tccom910.trns.dat = dte$()
tccom910.activity = "Before"
tccom910.bpid = tccom100.bpid
tccom910.nama = tccom100.nama
tccom910.prst = tccom100.prst
tccom910.cadr = tccom100.cadr
tccom910.namc = tccom130.namc
tccom910.namd = tccom130.namd
db.insert(ttccom910, db.retry)
commit.transaction()

I got it!!!!
I changed dte$() to date.num() and that fixed the compile error that was pointing to activity (I thought).

Thanks.
