RE: Launch Internet browser from Green Screen

STRPCO affects only the interactive job where it executes.  It uses a
special interface in the Client Access product to process commands on the
client (not related to rexec).  

To launch a site in Internet Explorer, 
STRPCO
STRPCCMD PCCMD('start iexplore.exe "http://www.google.com";') PAUSE(*NO)

Subject: Launch Internet browser from Green Screen


Hi list!

I want to be able to hit F1 and launch a specific help page that is 
located in our Intranet..  I know that I can create hotspots using Client 
Access but I do not want to do it like that.  My address is very long.   I 
also read about using STRPCO and using STRPCCMD.  I know I can do it like 
that, but how STRPCO works?  Once I run the command, will PC Organizer 
remain active forever?  Will it be active for everybody or just for that 
session?  What is activated?  I have not been successful I getting 
information about this tool.

I still would like to be able to launch the HTML page without the STRPCO 
command but I am not rejecting that solution.  I would like to hear some 
recommended paths from the group.

Best regards and great weekend,
