The new size feature in PC-DMIS 2017 R1 does not import into DataPage+ 5.2 SP1. I use an external command to call up the DataPageStats.exe file. I have submitted a ticket about this into Tech Support.
UPDATE from Tech Support: The external command to DataPageStats.exe does not work, however the STATS/ON does work. He will be submitting a ticket to the software development group to fix this issue.
I'm curious for those using the external command method to create the .XML stats file. How are you dealing with updates to Datapage+ with that file path embedded in your programs? Do you edit the path when you update? I know you can install / overwrite to a neutral directory, or perhaps embedd the external command call in a subroutine so it's only a single change, but it seems using STATS/ON would be much easier to maintain.
J/k... DP+ doesn't update so frequently that this even really presents a problem. I was told, during one of my tech support calls, that DataPageStats isn't "really" a DataPage thing. If DataPageStats is just a file that spits out an XML, then why would it matter if DP+ is updated, and an old DPS.exe is used? Does that file ever get changed? Is it listed in the changelog?
