Re: how to open google maps from Green Screen

If a customer asks to shoehorn modern technology into an ancient
protocol, I don't think it is unreasonable to tell the customer which
emulator must be used.

I know it works with ACS 5250 Emulation ... but not necessarily with

other Emulations :(

That's why I have to use STRPCCMD.

+1

You should not need to program anything like STRPCO or whatever - just

put the link on the screen, set up the emulator to make it a hotspot, then
people can just click on it - it just works.

Like Ron said!

Subject: how to open google maps from Green Screen

Hi,

can someone help me out?

My customer wants to open from a Green Screen Program Google maps for a

specific address.

Building the URL for opening google maps is not the problem, ... but

how to open it from a green screen.

I know there are the CL commands STRPCO and STRPCCMD, but how must the

command look like, so I can open a website?

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards
