Re: Hot 6.0.1 Tip #1: Remote Systems LPEX Editor: Auto-save-Saved me!

[Dave Murvin <davem@xxxxxxxx>]

Violaine,

Great feature.  I just got a chance to use it when my VPN connection 
crashed and left the source member locked in a prestart job.  When I 
restarted the VPN, WDSC could not save the source back to the host 
because of some sort of file error (I don't have the details at this 
time).  I had to end the prestart job to release the lock on the 
source member, then reget the source in 6.01.  Thought I was going to 
loose the work, but got the dialog box asking if I wanted to overlay 
the work member with the new source or use the work member.  I was 
able to use the work member with all my changes.  Saved me a lot of work.

Thanks
