Good Day,

I have looked at the archives for this task and didn't see anything relevant.

As the subject says, I'm using code below from a green screen command line ( was in CL ) to get a browser. Have tried numerous variations with the punctuation enclosing different parts.

What I get is 'X' on the green screen for 90 seconds then back to the command line with no errors msgs in the job log or SysOpr msgs. Needless to say, no browser.

STRPCCMD PCCMD('rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler 192.16
8.2.250:2020/cgibin/web036cl.PGM?CUST=40906')

If I take the URL portion and copy it into a browser - works great. Would it still bring up the browser if it couldn't find the URL?

Thanks

Buddy
