following up a message from Richard Webb to Paul Quinn:

HI Paul,

PQ> Almost.  There's a missing GOTO after the "if [%1]==[?]" tests in
PQ> the ChekParm.bat procedure.  I haven't had a chance to try out the

would have discovered that, in fact did when I was looking
later, figured otherwise we'd do the fall through thing, and that cleans up the code.

NIce solution and thanks a bunch again!  Works like a champ.


AT the end of the month all these things are parsed.  Making liberal use of
Horst's nset and listmod, and TImo's function
evaluator to calculate from a batch as well.
SInce we've been using papa as our example we'll stick with
it.  HEre's what happens at the end of the month.

Earlier we've calculated how many sessions of the net were
conducted previous month.  sHOuld be equal to days in
previous month.  wE store that in env var %SES% for later
use.

You'll note I renamed fgrep386 to fgrep, less typing >

::first we build the temporary file which will be added to
:: monthly report ...
echon tcc station Papa >> papastat.rep
type cr.txt | find "papa" /i /c >> papastat.tmp
fgrep -s  papa cr.txt >> papastat.txt
nset papa=$1 < papastat.tmp
fn /b %PAPA%/%SES% >> papastat.rep
:: the above gives us a percentage of sessions where
:: schedule rep "papa" was present.  REpresented as decimal
:: of course.
set papa=
echo. >> papastat.rep
del papastat.tmp
type papastat.txt | listmod call canstats.bat $1 papa papastat >>
canstat.bat echo del papastat.txt >> canstat.bat

AGain we're using horst's listmod to build a batch.  THis
batch will tell us how many sessions each operator
represented that schedule.

IF I've all the daily reports from previous month on hand
when first of month morning maintenance evvent rolls around
then my monthly report will be automagically compiled and
ready for emailing.  Once I've debugged all that process it
will be automagically emailed to those who should receive it .

Appreciate your help again.  You've sure ben my idea man
last year or two .


Regards,
           Richard
