Re: iACS New Example Directory

the newest version, 1.1.8.3 has a button, on the button bar, that opens the examples window.

you can also put a button on the 5250 session screen to open run sql scripts.

you can also associate the ".SQL" files with the ACS Launch executable

I recently added some examples also. I just used the default location.

My question is: what is the keyboard short cut to open the Examples window and navigate using the keyboard?

What I have done is set up some 'Default skeleton select statements' that I use a lot. I just make a minor change to them and can run the sql. That way I do not have to type 'select...'

Trying to get my boss out of pdm and wrkqry, but in his words dang mouse and to slow and too much typing.

. You can do this by modifying the users AcsConfig.properties file.
# Setting the property com.ibm.iaccess.SQLCustomExamples to a specific folder will override the # default location for Run SQL Scripts, Edit->Insert from Examples... The default location where # this option normally looks for user provided examples is # <Configuration Root>/RunSQLScripts/Examples. The IBM provided examples will not be # affected by setting this property.
# com.ibm.iaccess.SQLCustomExamples=V:/Shared_Network_drive/OurSQLExamples

I'm afraid I don't see any mention of changing from the default folder. Would you mind pointing it out?


Thanks

I'm in iACS Run SQL Scripts and I'm trying to save a New Example. Anyone know how I can change the Directory? The textbox is a drop-down that won't let me type. There's an Open button, but it just launches an Open File type dialog. I don't see a way to select the proper folder. I can browse to the folder, but there's no way to designate the folder I want.



Anyone know how to do this?



TIA
