I'm having problems getting a Shape Recordset to populate. Anyone have an
idea as to what the problem is with the following?
SHAPE {SELECT DISTINCT
div_id,
div_descr AS DIVISION
FROM AEO_CLS_DEP_DIV},
((SHAPE APPEND {SELECT DISTINCT
div_id,
dep_id,
dep_descr
FROM AEO_CLS_DEP_DIV},
((SHAPE APPEND {SELECT DISTINCT
dep_id,
cls_id,
cls_descr
FROM AEO_CLS_DEP_DIV})
RELATE dep_id TO dep_id) AS CLS)
RELATE div_id TO div_id) AS DEP
The error is occuring around position 75 "AEO_CLS_DEP_DIV}, ((SHAPE APPEND".
At its first occurance.

Re: Shape Recordsets
I think your syntax between Append/shape is incorrect
Each shape has to have an append so the first shape statement is complaining
that it can not find your append. To resolve I would try
SHAPE {SELECT DISTINCT
div_id,
div_descr AS DIVISION
FROM AEO_CLS_DEP_DIV},
APPEND ((SHAPE {SELECT DISTINCT)

Re: Shape Recordsets
Q*bert,
Thanks for the help. I actually found the answer in the same article and
it still didn't work. So I created the SQL using the Data Environment.
Here is the result:
SHAPE {SELECT DISTINCT div_id, div_descr AS DIVISION FROM AEO_CLS_DEP_DIV}
AS DIV
APPEND ((SHAPE {SELECT DISTINCT dep_id, div_id, dep_descr FROM
AEO_CLS_DEP_DIV}
AS DEP
APPEND ({SELECT DISTINCT class_id, dep_id,
class_descr FROM
AEO_CLS_DEP_DIV}
AS CLS
RELATE 'DEP_ID' TO 'DEP_ID') AS CLS) AS DEP
RELATE 'DIV_ID' TO 'DIV_ID') AS DEP
It works great, just don't understand why I have to RELATE the GrandChild
as GrandChild and then again as Child 'AS CLS) AS DEP'.
Looks like I've got some reading to do!
