Is it possible to have a green screen IBM i program place data on a PC's
clipboard?
I have a client that uses a web-based order processing application that
runs on an IBM i server.
However, the web based application is unchangeable. No code available.
They do have green screen capability and knowledge of the application's
infrastructure and database.
So, they can have a PC user with a web browser into their order
processing application AND a green screen client running simultaneously.
Can a green screen program be written that does X and then automatically
places it's results on the clipboard so the user can simply Alt-Tab to
the browser
and paste the results into the web application? If the green screen
program can place data on the clipboard, maybe it could perform the
Alt-Tab and Ctrl-V (paste) as well?
Yes, I know they could do it manually (select the data from the green
screen using the mouse/keyboard and press Ctrl-C to place it on the
clipboard in the first place).
But they would like to skip the manual copy to clipboard step at least.
Can it be done? How?
Best Regards,
Thomas Garvey
