Another post from the "IDMS Help Desk" series. The replies to the Original Post, replicated here and in the attachment, contains some discussion about how record Id's are used at run-time, and also a couple of suggestions as to how to easily display them! Hoping Somebody Will Enjoy This - cheers - GaryC

Subject:     Question about IDMS record ids

 

I am having a problem with record ids not matching from one CV to another.  I have some developers that want to copy a lot of data from one CV to another and there are a lot of different records involved.

 

The IDMS record IDS do not match so after they copy the data their applications are abending.

 

Can I change the record ids to match, even if they might duplicate another record id on the CV? I seem to remember years ago running an IDMS job or utility that just printed out the record name with the record id, but I can't seem to locate it now.    

 

Thank you
