Bruce,
This is what I had in mind. Place all the DOS-only commands in table you can access sequentially and then find the specific command with a callable version of the FIND (Ctrl+F, Ctrl+Shift+F) and if values are found, store them in a table. The first part is fairly straight forward, the second would require RBTI giving us the means to access the FIND function from code; maybe it is already available and I just don't know.

This, and a shot at 'Function Index.pdf' might be good start. As for finding things in EEPs, for front-line tools see: 'R:BASE eXtreme 9.5 Hot Keys' at 'http://www.razzak.com/fte'.

There is an old DOS program (I guess old and DOS are redundant) called findtext.exe that will seach for a string in a list of files. Don't know how I would do that for EEPS in Forms.

Maybe someone can chime in with a feasible way to do this. Best regards, Javier Valencia, PE President cid:[email protected] Valencia Technology Group, LLC 14315 S. Twilight Ln.
