You can't do that kind of piping input on OpenVMS (no <)

Hi Harold:
If you want to store a PDF file I would think you would have
to use an editor that can handle binary data perhaps EDIT/TPU.
$def PH_BLOBEDIT EDIT/TPU
I have converted a CR delimited text file (CR_FILE)
into a fixed length file by inputting the CR_FILE
into QUICK's standard input. The CR delimited data filled a
multiline field in the fixed length record file. The screen used the
AUTOUPDATE feature.
It went something like:-
SCREEN XXX AUTOUPDATE
FILE XFIXED
FIELD FMULTI FOR 9,60
PROCEDURE INITIALIZE
PUSH ENTRY
BUILD
$QUICK auto=XXX term=VT100 < CR_FILE
I have not tried this is VMS but it seemed to work on XP.
Regards,
Peter Bateman
