Re: [foxboro] ICCDRVR.tsk - GET script problem

A few years ago I ran into this problem, and as someone else said, I had
used iccdrvr to load some blocks. What had happened was a whitespace was
added by wordpad / word to the blocks and it caused bad problems in that
compound when using iccdrvr. It would load and work, but when I tried to
get into that block in icc, and then save the block it would fail due to
the whitespace (at the end of descript). After figuring out the bad
blocks, and fixing them it has been ok since. How I figured out the bad
blocks, was to do the following.
1) get a list of all blocks in the cp.
        OPEN CP0001 READ ME
        GET *:* SUBSET
        END
        CLOSE
        EXIT
2) Using word/excel create a script to modify ALL blocks. Save this file
as and use it as a input file. I use /opt/customer/data/iccloadinput.txt
        OPEN CP0001 MODIFY ME
        Modify COMPOUND:BLOCK
        END
        (add additional blocks here using above format)
        CLOSE
        EXIT 
3) Do a load using the input file.
        iccdrvr.tsk -i /opt/customer/data/iccloadinput.txt -o
/tmp/outfile.txt -d /tmp/dataoutputfile.txt
4) Use the /tmp/outfile to determine which blocks failed. These are ones
causing the problems.
I believe I have all the steps right, but it may need a little tweeking
since I use a automated iccdrvr script and also run it on windows nt
system.
If a block is working, but you cant modify it, this may be your
indication as to which one/ones.
