Hi All,
How is it possible to execute a V.Basic program streight from a
pull down menu option ?
ie: execute something that is not a LNX action.
How can we do it ?
Thank you very much for all your help.
Best Regards
Ana

This can be done by doing the following:
Add a method to the class Object (in the workbench) :
SWC:CallVBProgram()
{
extern()
for WSTYPE_OTHER=MEXT_COMMANDLINE("executable name");
}
Make this method Public and specify that it can be used in menus
make sure you fill in the desciption, since this is the only field that
will make the method selectable for a menu item.
Reload Configuration Manager
Create a new menuItem and select the action descibed above.
Commit changes logout/login
