MFS Errors migrating AREV source to Openinsight (OpenInsight Specific)

I am trying to migrate my source code from AREV to OpenInsight, but whenever I try and open/view/whatever to my copied Source Table I get errors from PROGRAM.MFS that was on my AREV system to the source table. Basically, HELP! All I get are Debugger errors and am at a standstill in migrating my APPs to OpenInsight. I am under the gun to complete this rather quickly and I can't do a thing until I can edit my source.
Thanks, Richard Caldwell

Richard,
Are you attempting to alias the OpenInsight tables from AREV, alias the AREV tables from OpenInsight, or have you created a "go-between" table? It sounds like one of the first two. My suggestion is to create a new table in a stand-alone volume (e.g. SOURCE_XFER), copy all source code into this table from AREV, then open this table from OpenInsight and began copying in your routines one by one.

Richard,
You need to provide and and . For example, the volume might be 'c:\arev' and table might be 'SOURCE' and app (account) might be 'SYSPROG'.
1. Command Line: run attach_table
, 'REVMEDIA' 2. Open record 'REVMEDIA', '*' 3. Remove MFS name (and @vm if there is more than one FS) from field 2 3. Save record as 'REVMEDIA', 'TEMP*GLOBAL' 4. Command Line: run detach_table 'REVMEDIA' 5. Command Line: run attach_table, 'TEMP'Your source is available now in TEMP.
