Omnis Externals
Externals are written for Omnis 7 in C/C++. The purpose of the "External" is to provide enhancements to the already powerful, easy and rich programming language that is Omnis 7.A well written external will provide an easier to use and much faster executing function. It usually involves just one line of code vs many lines of native Omnis code. We have experienced a 400%+ improvement in code execution speed in our first set of external products. |

SelectDuplicatesSelectDuplicates is an external function that provides a fast and easy way to search for duplicate list rows. The search can based on up to 8 columns (col 1 thru 8) combined to act as the "match" indentifiers. SelectDuplicates is as easy as a Calculate command.
For Example:
Calculate #F as SelectDuplicates(#L1,colName1,colName2,colName3,colName4)
The list must be sorted/subsorted before sending it to the function to be processed.
When the process is completed you are left with all the "duplicate" rows selected. One "matched" row from each set of duplicates is left unselected. You can then "Delete selected rows" or process them as you see fit.
