Hello I am trying to export to an ags 4 file.I am creating my own gcx file, however I can't prevent the output ags files from looking like this:
"**PROJ""*PROJ_ID","*PROJ_NAME","*PROJ_LOC","*PROJ_CLNT","*PROJ_CONT","*PROJ_ENG","*PROJ_MEMO","*FILE_FSET""<UNITS>","","","","","","",""
When I want it to look like this:
"GROUP","PROJ""HEADING","PROJ_ID","PROJ_NAME","PROJ_LOC","PROJ_CLNT","PROJ_CONT","PROJ_ENG","PROJ_MEMO","FILE_FSET""UNIT","","","","","","","","""TYPE","ID","X","X","X","X","X","X","X"
Can someone please explain what I am doing wrong?
Calan,
The TRAN_AGS field in the TRAN table in your project database is used to specify the version of the AGS file that will be created during export. If that field does not exist, or is blank, then the AGS version is taken as v3.
Also, did you create your own AGS 4 database structure or did you download a copy from the Bentley site?
Hi Dave
Sorry to piggyback on an existing thread. Could you expand further on the TRAN_AGS check?
Is there a specific format for the field entry (eg. 4, or 4.0, AGS4?)
Thanks
Tom
Hi Tom,
Yes.
You need to enter a numeric value.
4 or 4.0 will be interpreted the same.
But, AGS4 will NOT be interpreted as 4 or 4.0, so you will get a version 3 AGS file created during export.
It would be the same as if you left the field blank, the default format is version 3.
