In preparation for implementing OI10.0.8.1 I am cleaning up my database(s). In doing so, I notice that some client data do not have the full complement of dictionaries as I would have made the form changes using another client data.

I would like to update all the client databases with the missing dictionaries.

Is there a way of listing the missing dictionaries used in forms similar to the error list when converting OI9.4 to OI10.0.8.1.

Any advice would be appreciated.

You could write a program to scan through the SYSREPOSWINS records to check. The structure of these records is described here:

Basically you get the @fm'd list of controls from the record ( field( winrec, @rm,3 ) ) and look in the POS_TABLE$ and POS_COLUMN$ values of each control (equates are in OIWIN_EQUATES). Bear in mind these values can be @svm delimited for EditTables.
