I've got a nifty 15 line utility that anyone could complete called NOTEPAD. Basically is it like EDIT (pick) except it copies the Pick file to a known PC filename (C:\notepad.txt) and starts notepad. I and users can edit textfiles simply (don't try data files as there's no line numbers) and when you close notepad, you're left with a pick prompt that you simply hit <cr> to import the record back to pick. Works on native as well as networked pick systems.
Example: NOTEPAD FILE ITEM my 2 cents. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeff Schasny" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "U2 Users Discussion List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, March 03, 2004 1:03 PM Subject: RE: How to start windows programs > How about EXECUTE 'DOS /C "notepad.exe"' > > substituting whatever windows executable you like for "notepad.exe" or if > its more complex than that you could write out a batch file and run it by > this same method. > > > >Is there a way of starting windowsprograms on the users PC from a Unibasic > >program or do I need Wintergrate or some other tool to do that? > > > -- > u2-users mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
