I have two vaxstations: one with VMSDECwindows 5.1 and the other
with UWS 2.0.
I can't access from the VMS Paint application to a DDIF file
in the Ultrix worstation. I can't also access from de Ultrix Paint
application to a DDIF file in the VMS workstation.
I've tryed to copy first the DDIF file from one machine to the
other but still does not work. I thought the DDIF files were compatible
over both operating system. Is this supposition false?
Thanks, Xavi

Did you dcp -i it? The default is to copy it as though it were text, and that doesn't work for things that aren't text. Jeff | |||||

If you're pulling from Ultrix to VMS, you have to use EXCHANGE/NETWORK. | |||||

I have tried the command dcp -i from Ultrix to VMS and I get
an "unsupported document format" when accessing it through the
VMS DDIF viewer.
I have tried the EXCHANGE/NETWORK from Ultrix to VMS. Same result.
The version of VMS is 5.1-1
UWS 2.0 (Ultrix 3.0)

Hi, I did the same thing and it worked by using: dcp -i /x/y/file node::"disk:[dir]file.ddif" --------------------------------------------- After copying it over I do a: $set file/semantics=ddif [dir]file.ddif --------------------------------------- And then call it into the ddif-viewer or DECwrite. Hope it works for you,too. berthold | |||||
