RE: Screen Scraper

["York, Albert" <albert.york@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It uses UDDS (user defined data stream) to send a request to the workstation
to return the current screen.

Here is the display file description:

** DISPLAY FILE FOR READING CURRENT DISPLAY SCREEN        
      **                                                        
     A                                      DSPSIZ(*DS3 *DS4)   
     A                                      PRINT               
      *                                                         
      * USER DEFINED FORMAT                                     
     A          R DIJ005R1                  USRDFN              
      *                                                         
      * INSERT DUMMY FORMAT SO BUFFER SIZE WILL BE CORRECT      
     A          R DIJ005R2                                      
     A            FILLER1     1783   B  1  2                    
     A            FILLER2     1783   B  1  2

Here is the code to do it:

        how does the break handling pgm grab the screen?

        thanks again,
