Creating a dependency graph

[tim]

Be warned, this is one of those "I want to do this" posts - "this" could well be impractical.

Ideally, I want to create a dependency graph in URp. I have in mind a tree in the Data Explorer pane that represents the dependency graph.

I already have a list of items with dependencies (as grandchildren of those items) in a URD. I guess creating a dependency graph isn't possible using URp by itself.

Can VBp be used in some way with URp to achieve this?

Not that I can think of.

You could possibly export to XML or CSV and generate a graph using another tool.

Understood.

I'm currently planning to use the TSV created from a Grid Values Copy of Search Results as a starting point.

Munge the TSV to makefile form using awk.

Then adapt make.awk from the chapter 7 of the awk book so that I can generate a set of dependency graph entries in a text file, and then have a WinBatch script use that file to build the dependency graph in Data Explorer.
