Hello, Is it possible to backup directly to a CD-RW device? I format my data CDs using DirectCD. I've read 2 Microsoft KB articles (320471 and 262006) which claim this is not possible. I don't believe it. Surely there is a guru out there who knows how to do this! Thanks, Craig Meyers Currently...

I solved my own problem. I used an infrequently used character like this: sed "s~$STRVAR~substitution text~g" /path/file

BTW - there is no CR between "substitution" and "text". I'm not sure how this line was fractured.

Hi, I've got an oddball situation. I'm trying to expand a shell variable string in a sed statement. The string contains a special character. In this case the character is a forward slash (/). I believe other special characters will cause a similar problem - like parentheses, brackets, etc...

What I finally found that works is this: ListBox1.ListIndex = -1 (meaning "no rows selected") placed at the end of ListBox1_DblClick

I will try using referesh and will also fool around some with the visible property. It is possible there is a bug in the listbox control. Thanks for the ideas.

I have a behavior issue with respect to a listbox I have inserted into an excel worksheet. Initially...upon loading the workbook...and activating the worksheet... When I first select an item in the listbox, that item remains highlighted when I select another item. Although this does not have an...

Right on CaKiwi. And you can specify up to 9 buffers. Although I've only ever needed 2 or 3 at most.

CaKiwi, You are right on the mark. I came up with EXACTLY the same pattern after many moments of iteration. I was able to use this pattern exclusively (which helps with execution speed). I had something similar to flogrr but the execution speed was unacceptable. My script runs even faster since...

Thanks for the help. You have given me some ideas I can work through.

vgersh99, Your solution may be too generic for my problem. Here's what I get when I grep on &quot;HTR4B&quot;: <OBJ_NAME>VHTR4B_BP</OBJ_NAME> <OBJ_NAME>VHTR4B_IS</OBJ_NAME> <PRM_ASSN>HTR4B</PRM_ASSN> <OBJ_NAME>HTR4B</OBJ_NAME> <PRM_ASSN>VHTR4B_BP</PRM_ASSN> <PRM_ASSN>VHTR4B_IS</PRM_ASSN>...

Hi all, I'm having writer's block (must be Fri. 13th) Trying to write a basic sed substitution: sed &quot;s/HTR4B/HTR2/g&quot; file A relevant chunk of file looks like this: <PRM_ASSN>HTR4B.L</PRM_ASSN> <GMBE_NAME>LC_HTR4B.SDCS = PROC</GMBE_NAME> The problem is I do not want substrings...

Thanks, ElgisRamon! I don't have a specific question or tip to share at this time. I was hoping to find a place to air out my issues regarding: awk, sed, and ksh. If this AWK forum will excuse an occasional digression into sed and ksh, then I'm happy. &quot;A friend of mine said I should...

Hello, Anyone know of a goo Shell Scripting Forum? I work almost exclusively in ksh93. So a ksh93-specific forum would be best. CraigMan >(::O>
