    In Easytrieve using the XML option is there a way to have the data come out in one record instead of a record for each field?

    HI Ken!

    This was setup to run on Windows, but the concept is the same on z/OS.

     

    Please use this for the FILE statement : FILE XMLRPT F(80) PRINTER SYSNAME 'STDOUT.XML'

    Then use this for your REPORT statement: REPORT RPT PRINTER XMLRPT LINESIZE 70 XML

     

    The output goes on one long line with each “field” being 70 bytes. It might not be exactly what you are needing, but there are no CR/LF characters.

     

    Thanks!

        Your suggestion is not giving me what I need. I guess I will submit this as an idea.

    Hi Ken!

     

    Thank you for letting me know that the information provided did not help you accomplish exactly what you are needing.

    Please do open an Idea as we will be happy to further try to help you do functionally what you are needing to do, if possible.  Please include more details as we would like to hear your purpose for this request as just about every XML file we have seen looks like what CA Easytrieve generates (except maybe for indentations to align elements). 

     

    Thank you so very much and Best Regards!
