Suneido New Release Tool ------------------------ When ever there is a new release of suneido, depending on the level of changes you might have to dump all the tables from the old release and load them into the new release. The RA_CreateBatchFiles is a suneido function that creates two batch files: 1) sun_dump.bat - dump all your files to disk. 2) sun_load.bat - load all your files from disk. While this might not be an elegant solution it will do the job. There is a constant "dbadd" that is set to +50 for when you load back the database. You might need to addjust this constant to suit your circumstances. Under the Roberto_Artigas_Jr folder the prefix of the CreateBatchFiles is my initials. If you decide to add your new release procedures to this library and contribute them to the Suneido community please follow this format. Create a directory with your name and a function with your intials in the front. Hope this helps the community at large. Enjoy!
