Re: Press enter to activate a link (DLee@xxxxxxxx)

Thanks for your replay, but the below suggestion didn't work for me.

Below is what I ended up doing: I modified the original program that
generates the web link, and passed it to this program, which actually
brought up the web page as expected.

This works in case anyone would find it usefull. With some tinkering, a
person could probably make this a nice service program.

PGM &WEBLNK
DCL VAR(&WEBLNK) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(70)
DCL VAR(&SEL) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(200)
Dcl &Quote *Char ( 1 ) Value( '"' )
DCL VAR(&SEL) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(200)

// declare the path to internet explores
DCL VAR(&IE) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(51) +
VALUE('"C:\Program Files\Internet +
Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" "')
// Add quotes to the end of the target web link
CHGVAR VAR(%SST(&WEBLNK 65 1)) VALUE(&QUOTE)
// concat the path to internet explorer to the target web page
CHGVAR VAR(&SEL) VALUE(&IE || &WEBLNK)

STRPCO
MONMSG MSGID(CPF0000 IWS4010)
STRPCCMD PCCMD(&SEL)
RCLRSC
RETURN
ENDPGM

<See if something like this might work for you:
< In your DSPF
< RTNCSRLOC(&REC &FLD)
< REC 10A H
< FLD 10A H

< In your RPG:
< select;
< when FLD = 'WSABA#'; // Enter pressed in this field
< exsr CreateWeb;
< endsl;
