Hello, The following rlist statement works in AREV. How do I get
the formula {} to work on the fly in OI?
RLIST 'LIST TITLES {IF {MOD_FLAG} GE "10195"' THEN @ANS "*"} MOD_FLAG',1
There is more columns than this but this is the first stage.
Thanks

Bruce,
Inline formulas are not supported in OI. Whether because of, or in conjunction to, a new restriction on runtime OI applications, no components that create functions or symbolic columns on-the-fly are permitted.

If you're working on pure developments, you could have a dict item that processes a subroutine (it might have to be make expendable) that you compile and generate on the fly.
You can't do this on a runtime either, so you are limited.
Only other option is to write a sort of select shell where you process the results yourself.
It shouldn't be that hard, I can pretty much see the code in my head. We could probably whip one out for you, if you're interested.
