Re: Prompting CL without STRCODE

["Douglas Edwards" <Douglas.Edwards@xxxxxxxxxx>]

     Eric,
     
     I did find a bug.  If you have a parameter that expects a short value 
     in it, such as COPIES on the OVRPRTF command (parm must be 6 
     characters or less); and if you use a variable name that is longer 
     than the 6 characters (such as &COPIES), it gives the bogus error that 
     the value is too long.  It should not be testing for length constaints 
     such as this if you use a variable name.

After a few posts from users, I posted at the end of April that we were 
looking into being able to prompt CL using the same mechanism that OpsNav 
uses from the AS/400 Toolbox.  This would avoid to need to have a STRCODE 
session to prompt your CL statements from the CODE Editor.  Well, we now 
have something for you to try out.
     
I have posted on the WDT400 website (exact link is below) the update.  A 
couple of points:
1.  This update is provided AS IS.
2.  You have to have V5R1 of WDT400 with CODE Service Pack 1 or CODE 
Service Pack 2.
3.  Read the instructions carefully.

Note: Occasionally, the graphical-user-interface that displays the prompted 
CL statement appears behind the editor. If this happens, switch focus to 
the graphical-user-interface.
     
Hope you find it useful,
