YANCP - yet another customer problem !
The (VMS) systems that are implemented on this site require a user
to give a job/project code at login time. This is solicited via a
piece of code. As the users use both VT300's and VAXstations
and the input of data from SYS$SYLOGIN or DECW$SYLOGIN doesn't
appear to work is there any other way of doing it ?
Could the job code program simple create a DECterm and run a command
procdure to do this ?
They need to do this from each DECterm creation and if possible
from FileView startup ?
Regards,
Dave

If the job/project code that you need is NOT a security measure, doing
this on the VAXstations should be easy. You could write a simple
program that would create and manage a modal dialog box that would
prompt the user for the code. The user would enter the code and press
O.K. and the code could be saved as you want.
You could manage the modal dialog in two places. By altering (this is
probablly not a good idea to do) sys$manager:decwstart.com like so:
$do_session:
$define decw$doing_session T
$!Next line is line you would ADD
$run directory:getcode.exe
With this method, the dialog would come up before the session manager.
The other method would be to add the line in the users decw$login.com
file.

If you must solicit the information for every DECterm or Fileview
session, the program for getting it would have to run from login.com.
If this is the case, only Fileview would need something special for the
windows environment, A DECterm session could use the character-cell
environment program.
