How do I retrieve DPA files via the Documanage Bridge?

For instance, suppose you are storing legacy Documaker archive (DPA files) in Documanage and you can retrieve the files using Documaker Desktop but not via the Documanage Bridge. Instead, you get this message:

N/A

If this happens, make sure the APPIDX.DFD file you are using with the GenArc program (or Documaker Desktop’s archive/retrieval) includes the Config field, set up as shown here:

< Fields >
	FieldName	= CONFIG
< Field:CONFIG >
	EXT_Type	= CHAR_ARRAY
	EXT_Length	= 10
	EXT_Precision	= 0
	INT_Type	= CHAR_ARRAY
	INT_Length	= 10
	INT_Precision	= 0
	Key		= Yes
	Required	= Yes
Note   The value of the Config option is written into the DPA file archived in Documanage. So, when you retrieve an archived item using the Documanage bridge, make sure the value of the Config field is the same in both your DAP.INI file and in the FSIUSER.INI file used by Documaker to archive the transaction.

For instance, if the FSIUSER.INI file includes this setting:

  < Configurations >
      Config = Batch Proc

You must set the Config option in the DAP.INI file to Batch Proc to retrieve the transaction using the Documanage bridge.
