4077.1	You can't (as far as I know!) Sorry, Graham.	IOSG::PYE	Graham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's Apprentice	`Thu Apr 14 1994 10:53`	0

	hello, Customer want to be called WPS-PLUS editor in cobol like other editors (edit, tpu). They are using ALL-IN-1 2.4 and developing MIS application. They are using wps-plus as editor, so they can't change it to other editor. They need this function for MIS application. If WPS-PLUS/VMS is installed, is it possible to call ?. I need your advice.
4077.3	No callable interface	IOSG::NEWLAND	Richard Newland, IOSG, REO2-G/L2	`Tue Apr 19 1994 19:17`	10
	WPS-PLUS does not provide a code level callable interface. The WPS-PLUS editor can be called from an ALL-IN-1 application. The WPS-PLUS/VMS product provides a stand alone editor that can be invoked from DCL. It may be possible to invoke this from a program by spawning a sub-process. Richard
4077.4	Change it as required?	FORTY2::ASH	Mail Interchange Group, Reading	`Thu Apr 21 1994 14:07`	11
	> <<< Note 4077.2 by DEKVC::JINSUNPARK >>> > >They are using wps-plus as editor, so they can't change it to other editor. Why do you say "can't"? It should be possible to redefine the default editor to EDT or TPU before calling the Edit function from the program. If you mean they really WANT WPS-Plus, then ok. grahame
