Code: bset -t &b 1 hello hadd -m htest item1 abcd hadd -m htest item2 wxyz echo -a - $hget(htest,item1,&b) echo -a - $bvar(&b,1,$bvar(&b,0)).text would be interested in any special usage associated with the identifier Thanks Last edited by Nightstorm; 05/06/09 12:21 PM.

(I suppose it isn't but would appreciate a confirmation.) what about the other usual $hget(name/N, item) does the line limit apply to it ? Both the above questions are of course assuming that i am storing the fetched data in a &binvar. - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - could someone give me a line actually showing the usage of $hget(name/N, item, &binvar) ? (without using it in /echo) since it is a bit diff & returns the number of bytes. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - after some quick testing it seems that after using hadd -smb name item &b , i could still fetch the data the usual way $hget(name,item) & assign it to another &binvar the usual way. ..appreciate any help & comments. Thankyou. ---------------------- Last edited by Nightstorm; 18/06/09 05:41 PM.
