Axiant thin client on HP3000 and run-time parms

[Boyle, Joe]

Hi all,

if this is running on NT you could try something like that below, ( re %1 to
%8, for VMS substitute P1 to P8  ) 


this is a typical example of how a batch file with parameters would be
called on NT,
 
you would typically have a button on the screen which would run a designer
procedure like that below,

***
PROCEDURE DESIGNER des1
BEGIN
;your code
let rncmd = &     ;    this would be a temp field 
"cmd /c e:\joe\report1.bat" &
+ " " +  tank_no of tank_move + " " +  tank_part of tank_move 
run command   rncmd
END
*** 

the batch file "e:\joe\report1.bat"  would contain code like that below,

***
set par1=%1
set par1=%2
quiz auto=e:\temp\Programs\a1013752 dict=e:\temp\Programs\phd.pdc
***

the tank_no of tank_move would be picked  up by %1 ( %1 up to %8 I believe )
and then substituted into variable par1 which you could access as in the
quiz below ,  see  'SET REP DEV DISC NAME $par1'  and define d3 char * 30 =
getsystemval("par1")

***
can cle
set default

set report nolimit 

SET REP DEV DISC NAME $par1

acc files...

							  
define dpar1 char * 30 = getsystemval("par1")
define dpar2 char * 30 = getsystemval("par2")

select if ... = dpar2 ...

page head  tab 1  systime keep column headings &
 skip 1
 
REPORT all
***

regards,
Joe Boyle.

One of my clients uses Axiant, but with NT and DEC/Compaq.
We used Quick screens to get all parms from users
and then a designer procedure to form the batch job
and submit it.
Should work with HP as well.
