RE: Calling PC program from RPG

["Shaw, David" <dshaw@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hrishikesh,

I think that this can be done, but I don't know precisely how.  I would
suggest that you subscribe to the RPG mailing list and ask this question
there.  There are some true programming experts on that list who don't
monitor this one, since they don't have an interest in MAPICS.  You can
subscribe to that list by going to www.midrange.com and following the
instructions for joining.

Dear all,

My requirement is to print Barcodes. The printing of Barcodes is done 
through a PC program and the Barcodes are printed on a Laser Printer. I have

to fetch data from MAPICS through a RPG program and pass this data as 
parameter to the PC printing program in order to print Bar codes. After the 
printing is complete the PC program should transfer control to the RPG 
program.

Is such a thing possible? Please advise. If you have any illustrations that 
will help me, please give them.
