I'm having a problem capturing printer outputs in a Win2000 environment with
RBDos 6.5+ (No, Razzak, I HAVEN'T loaded the upgrades sitting on the computer
yet <G>) I'm working on a mixed IBMDos, Win98, and WinNT(2000) on Novell
3.12, 5.0 and 5.1 networks. Problem is with the Novell Capture command while
Zip ing from RB6.5Dos. From the Command Prompt, the following command lines
work OK.
Capture L=1 Q=Olaser1 - Redirects Lpt1 to the que OLaser1
Capture endcap L=1 - Ends the capture of Lpt1
Under RB6.5Dos
Capture L=1 Q=Olaser1 Returns the following error code:
Capture-4.15-28: A number from 1 through 9 is required with the LPT (L=)
option on this workstation.
If I use the following commands
Set var vout = (L=1 Q=Olaser1)
Zip capture .vout
The capture works correctly.
I have the same problem with Capture Endcap L=1 where the L=1 parameter
doesn't get passed properly while the following code works:
set var vend = ('L=1')
Zip capture endcap .vend
I know the workaround works ok, but my question is why don't the commands
that work from the c: prompt work from the R: prompt? I've tried it with the
Zip Cmd.exe /c and there was no change in reaction. Is there something I'm
missing here, or is this a bug, or what? I can't seem to find anything in
On-Line documentation, or anywhere else for that matter.
TIA
