3101.0. "Foreign doc type message changed?" by TRIGG::VOGEL (Steve Vogel - Ralston/Eveready & Emerson Sales Support) Tue Aug 03 1993 21:29

My  customer is operating in a mixed environment, ALL-IN-1 IOS and 
TeamLinks.  They are able to tag files with TeamLinks so that the 
receiver knows what application created an attachment.  If these are 
sent to ALL-IN-1 IOS the message that is displayed is "FOREIGN document 
type cannot be displayed".  While there is no requirement to display 
the attachment, it would be nice if the message was "LOTUS file, cannot
be displayed", or something like that.

I have created a handling tag for ALL-IN-1 IOS which allows a user to 
upload a spreadsheet into the ALL-IN-1 IOS file cabinet and tag (handling)
it with "WK3".  When this is sent to a TeamLinks user everything seems 
to work fine.

The only request is as stated above and I have been unable to determine 
how this can be accomplished.  I know that if I RVC a .PS file that it  
shows the message "PostScript document type cannot be displayed" when it 
is read.  Can't I setup something so that an incoming message attachment 
works in the same manner?

Thanks for your help,

Steve

    Steve,
    
    You don't say which versions of ALL-IN-1 or TeamLinks you have. With a
    certain not in EFT baselevel I can read Lotus 1-2-3 files sent from
    TeamLinks to ALL-IN-1.
    
    If you're not at this version you certainly wouldn't want to design in
    anything that will be done magically in a PFR
    
    regards,

    I am using A1 V3.0 and TL V1.1 (DEC Mailworks Server V1.1) not that it
    should make any difference.   What I want is for an ALL-IN-1 inbound
    message that is tagged (ie: handling) with a XLS4 (EXCEL V4) or WK3
    (LOTUS V3.n) to display the appropriate message when the mail message
    is read (ie: not "Foreign doc type .... etc").
    
    I believe this may require that a DSAB be created ... is this correct?
    Even if I can create a DSAB (or copy the FOREIGN DSAB to one named
    LOTUS 123) will this automatically be applied to an inbound message
    (provided the WK3 tag is set up referencing the appropriate data set,
    SM MFP MFT)?
    
    Regards,
