R:BASE has been enhanced to improve the handling of variables when working with multiple ODBC connections. Previously, variables defined within one ODBC connection session were not always available to queries executed through another connection, requiring duplicate variable definitions or additional programming logic to maintain consistency.

With this enhancement, the set of variables currently defined for each ODBC connection is automatically passed along with the SQL queries being executed. This allows variable values to be recognized and resolved correctly across multiple ODBC connections, providing a more seamless and consistent ex*****on environment.

This new capability, introduced in the June 11th release, complements several other ODBC-related changes, including improvements to the PASSTHROUGH setting, more reliable variable calculations within reports, and expanded support with WHERE clause restrictions.

R:BASE users can utilize ODBC to connect to foreign data sources, simplifying the process of accessing and integrating data from other database systems. Through ODBC, R:BASE can access tables from multiple database products simultaneously, enabling applications to work with data stored across different ODBC-compliant platforms. This flexibility allows organizations to leverage existing data investments while using R:BASE as a centralized application and reporting environment.

For additional information on working with foreign data sources, please review the "Using SQL Data Sources in R:BASE 11" technical document.

A new IQTR date function has been implemented to return the fiscal quarter number for a date, based upon a provided fiscal year beginning date.

Syntax:

(IQTR(date,fydate))

Where:

. date specifies the date whose quarter you wish to discover
. fydate specifies the first day of the fiscal year

The function returns the fiscal quarter number (1,2,3,4).

Example:

SET VAR vDate DATE = 06/22/2013
SET VAR vFirstOfFiscalYear DATE = 07/01/2012
SET VAR vIQTR INTEGER = (IQTR(.vDate,.vFirstOfFiscalYear))

The value assigned to vIQTR is 4.

The new index creation process has been enhanced, where a default value is provided consisting of the table name and column name(s).

The proper use of indexing can greatly increase the speed of your applications. The suggestions for using indexes may provide you with a significant performance boost, though incorrect indexing can adversely affect the speed of your applications.

The "Indexing Explained in R:BASE 11" PDF document is available to explain the following topics:

. Index Introduction
. Choosing the Columns to Index
. Assigning and Removing an Index
. Optimizing Indexes
. Indexing Long TEXT Values
. Using WHERE Clauses with Indexes
. Using ORDER BY with Indexes
. Indexing Computed Columns
. Index Efficiency
. Summary

A new REVLIST string manipulation function has been implemented to reverse the order of items within a delimited list of values.

Syntax:

(REVLIST(text,delimiter))

Where:

text specifies the list of values to be reversed.
delimiter specifies the character used to separate the list items.

The function returns the list with the items in reverse order while preserving the specified delimiter.

The delimiter argument allows the use of custom list separators, similar to the functionality provided by the SSUBCD function.

Example:

SET VAR vRevList TEXT = +
(REVLIST('One,Two,Three,Four,Five',(CHAR(044))))

The value assigned to vReverseList will be:

Five,Four,Three,Two,One

The REVLIST function differs from the REVERSE function, which reverses the order of individual characters within a text string. Instead, REVLIST operates on a list of delimited values, reversing the order of the list items while maintaining the integrity of each item.

The New/Edit Stored Procedure dialog has been enhanced with a larger default window size, improving visibility of the argument list.

When creating a stored procedure, users define arguments including name, data type, and comments. These definitions are significant, as the number and data types of arguments provided during ex*****on must match those specified at creation.

The enhanced dialog allows for full visibility of all defined arguments and their associated comments. Additionally, user-adjusted window sizing is preserved between sessions, further improving usability and efficiency when managing stored procedures.

A new Data Browser setting has been added to display the connected database name and path in the Data Browser title bar.

This option is especially beneficial for users who connect to multiple database instances that contain identical or similar table names, making it easier to distinguish between environments.

Note: The Database in Title Bar setting applies only to R:BASE sessions. Applications running under Runtime for R:BASE or R:Compiler for R:BASE will not display database information in the Data Browser title bar.

The following outlines what each General Option setting provides, allowing you to customize the appearance of the Data Browser to suit your preferences:

The Enhanced DB Grid control now includes a new Indicator Width property, allowing the pointer column width to be adjusted as needed.

The indicator is the small pointer displayed in the first column of the grid that identifies the currently selected row. Its visibility is controlled by the Indicator option on the Properties tab.

With the addition of the Indicator Width property, the width of the indicator column can be customized to suit display preferences.

The following example demonstrates how to enable the indicator and adjust its width within a form EEP:

PROPERTY SHOWINDICATOR 'TRUE'
PROPERTY WIDTHOFINDICATOR 20

The Keys/Indexes area of the Data Designer has been enhanced to display Column(s) by default within the list, making it easier to quickly identify indexed columns.

The Column(s) field shows the column name associated with each key or index. For multi-column indexes, the columns are displayed as a comma-separated list. The Column(s) panel remains available on the right side of the list, providing additional details such as column sort direction and size.

Sorting capabilities have also been added to the list, allowing column names to be located alphabetically. This enhancement is particularly useful when reviewing the Duplicate Factor list (sorted in descending order) to identify inefficient index definitions, where unnecessary or poorly defined indexes may be candidates for removal.

While this enhancement may appear minor, it significantly improves usability when working with tables that contain many keys or indexes. The benefit is especially noticeable when dealing with unnamed or multi-column indexes. Previously, users were required to manually select each index, review its column definitions, and remember or document the details.

New column-level PROPERTY command parameters have been introduced to support loading BLOB data from a file and saving BLOB data to a file.

New Parameters:

. LOADFROMFILE
. SAVETOFILE

Syntax:

PROPERTY TABLE_COLUMN [TableName->ColumnName] LOADFROMFILE 'Value'

PROPERTY TABLE_COLUMN [TableName->ColumnName] SAVETOFILE 'Value'

Parameters:

. TABLE_COLUMN [TableName->ColumnName]
Specifies the table and column to modify.
. Value
Specifies the file name used for the load or save operation.

These new parameters enable developers to programmatically load file contents into a BLOB field or save BLOB data from the in-memory dataset to an external file.

Additional Column-Level Parameters:

. TEXTVALUE - Updates the field value
. SETTONULL - Sets the field value to NULL
. SHOWEDITOR - Launches the BLOB Editor for the column

Examples:

Example 01 – Load a BLOB from a file:
PROPERTY TABLE_COLUMN [Contact->ContPhoto] LOADFROMFILE 'NewPhoto.jpg'

Example 02 – Save BLOB data to a file:
PROPERTY TABLE_COLUMN [Contact->ContPhoto] SAVETOFILE 'CurrentPhoto.jpg'

Documentation Update
The "Managing BLOBs" technical document in the From The Edge series has been updated to reflect the enhanced PROPERTY command.

The Data Browser has been enhanced to display extended field definition details in the status bar for the currently focused column.

The enhanced status bar pane may include one or more of the following field attributes:

. Primary Key
. Referenced Key indicator
. Foreign Key
. Index with sort direction
. AUTONUM with Next and Increment values
. Not NULL constraint

These additions complement the existing status bar information, which includes:

. Table Name
. Field Name
. Datatype and Length
. Computed and Expression details
. Comment/Description

This extended field information provides immediate context while browsing tables and tabbing through columns, improving efficiency when analyzing and understanding column data.
