Hi, I am new to Ajax for Natural and tried some things out. What I am now working on is to upload TXT-files to ADABAS/Natural-Mainframe using the NJXFILEUPLOAD2-control my problem is that it seems that XCIOBJECT.CONTENT is empty after upload - I checked this in the event “onUploadFinished”. Is there to do anything else then press the upload button? documentation says that the content should then be available in XCIOBJECT.CONTENT. I want to display the content in a TEXT-control but there seems to be no content. Or should I better use another control? Thanks for your support! Hermann ---

Hi Herman, did you have a look at the sample FILEUD-P in the njxdemos? Best Regards, Christine ---

Hi Christine, yes - I had a look at the example - but there is only written VALUE U’myupload.onUploadFinished’ 0500 /\* Now you can access the file content in the 0510 /\* XCIOBJECTS data structure and store it for 0520 /\* instance in a database. But the XCIOBJECTS.CONTENT(\*) is empty in my case - so I am not sure what is the problem. So the example is a combined one for up- and download - it’s not clear for me which parts are necessary for upload and which belong to download only e.g. at the begin of the example there are some CALLNAT’s CALLNAT “LOADFILE” ‘njx\_buttonitemlist.pdf’ DOC1 CALLNAT “MAKEURL” XCIOBJECTS(\*) DOC1 URL1 ‘njx\_buttonitemlist.pdf’ I suppose that they are only necessary for download and not for upload - or is this wrong?

> [@Hermann Platzer](#): > > CALLNAT “LOADFILE” ‘njx\_buttonitemlist.pdf’ DOC1 > CALLNAT “MAKEURL” XCIOBJECTS(\*) DOC1 URL1 ‘njx\_buttonitemlist.pdf’ Yes, right, that part is only for the download. Did you test with the original example FILEUD-P? Could you just enter the lines PRINT XCIOBJECTS(1) NEWPAGE into the event handler myupload.onUploadFinished and verify the content this way? ---

This is the result of PRINT XCIOBJECTS(1) 147194q.txt application/txt This seems to be the CONTENTID and CONTENTTYPE of XCIOBJECTS - but CONTENT is still empty, isn’t it? When I run FILEUD-P the CONTENT is filled - but I see no difference to my program and if the CALLNAT’s (LOADFILE, MAKEURL) are deactivated it also don’t work in FILEUD-P so the CALLNATs are not only for the download :!: :?: :!: Here is my program: 0050 DEFINE DATA LOCAL 0060 1 NJX\_FILECONTENT 0070 2 CEXT (A) DYNAMIC 0080 2 CNAME (A) DYNAMIC 0090 2 CONTENTID (A) DYNAMIC 0100 2 CPATH (A) DYNAMIC 0110 1 NJX\_KDKURZ (A) DYNAMIC 0120 1 NJX\_TXTANZEIGE (A) DYNAMIC 0130 1 NJX\_TXTKUVERTANSCHRIFT (A) DYNAMIC 0140 1 XCIOBJECTS (1:_) 0150 2 CONTENT (B) DYNAMIC 0160 2 CONTENTID (A) DYNAMIC 0170 2 CONTENTTYPE (A) DYNAMIC 0180 \* 0190 LOCAL 0440 1 BLOB (B) DYNAMIC 0450 1 URL (A) DYNAMIC 0460 \* 0470 END-DEFINE 0480 \* 0590 CALLNAT “LOADFILE” ‘njx\_upload.txt’ BLOB 0600 CALLNAT “MAKEURL” XCIOBJECTS(_) BLOB URL ‘njx\_upload.txt’ 0610 \* 0620 RESET BLOB 0630 \* 0640 PROCESS PAGE USING “PLIMPORT” 0650 \* 0660 DECIDE ON FIRST _PAGE-EVENT 0670 VALUE U’nat:page.end’, U’nat:browser.end’ 0680 /_ Page closed. 0690 IGNORE 0700 VALUE U’btnKdSelektion’ 0710 /\* TODO: Implement event code. 0720 PROCESS PAGE UPDATE FULL 0730 VALUE U’njx\_FileContent.onUploadFinished’ 0760 PRINT XCIOBJECTS(1) 0770 NEWPAGE 0780 \* 0960 PROCESS PAGE UPDATE FULL 0970 VALUE U’onBtnAbbrechen’ 0980 ESCAPE MODULE 0990 VALUE U’onBtnImportieren’ 1000 /\* TODO: Implement event code. 1010 PROCESS PAGE UPDATE FULL 1020 NONE VALUE 1030 /\* Unhandled events. 1040 PROCESS PAGE UPDATE 1050 END-DECIDE 1060 \* 1070 END I copied the subprograms MAKEURL and LOADFILE from SYSEXNJX to my library - but still not working.

I am attaching a minimal example for the upload, maybe you could check this out? Kind regards, Thomas [upload.zip](https://techcommunity.softwareag.com/uploads/short-url/7EpZESVrM7FnH1qJe7HMJHGO85K.zip) (4.69 KB) ---

Hi Thomas, same result as in my previous example: 147194q.txt application/txt no CONTENT, just CONTENTID and CONTENTTYPE Best regards, Hermann ---

Hermann, sorry for that. If this small example does not deliver the content, I can only recommend to go for a support request. It could turn out to be a platform or version issue. Kind regards, Thomas ---

Hi, we installed the zap and it works now 🙂 content is filled - which brings me to my next question I uploaded a txt-file and want to analyze its content - how to do this? I have to read line by line and do some actions thanks and best regards, Hermann ---

The uploaded file comes in form of a blob. If you know that it is a text file, you can move it into a text string, separate this into lines and work on the lines. Please see the attached working example. Best regards, Thomas [upload2.zip](https://techcommunity.softwareag.com/uploads/short-url/sqCECy280I0Ts3VZuAV7qrphN9C.zip) (4.97 KB) ---

I see: The example works for Unicode data, but I assume you have codepage ISO-8859-1 on the client (which corresponds to CP819 on the host) and an EBCDIC codepage on the host. And I assume we are receiving the data on the host in the client codepage ISO-8859-1 (CP819). So we have to convert it to the host codepage first. I don’t have a mainframe at hand, but the attached example should do it. If not, could you please tell which codepages are active on client and host (system variable \*CODEPAGE) and/or provide an example file?
