Re: STRPCCMD problem with DOS window

["Richard Schoen" <richard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Couple of options:

1.) Should be able to call iexplore directly with a parameter. EX:
iexplore www.rjssoftware.com 

2.) Write or have someone write you a VB or VBScript program to run the
ShellExecute command on the PC with your command line. You can then make
the launch Window invisible.

3.) If you're open to a commercial option, RJS offers a product for
desktop to PC integration called the iSeries Office Integrator.  Allows
you to run programs, launch remote commands, perform mail merges, file
transfers and more.

subject: [WEB400] STRPCCMD problem with DOS window

Hi;

I'm running a strpccmd from a iseries clp program, that passes a
variable 
to a dos batch file to display web page based on the variable passed.
This 
all works find, with one exception my user has dual monitors, and the
web 
pages comes up on monitor 2, and the dos screen comes up on monitor #1. 

Since the dos screen comes up on monitor #1 it initially clears the 
iseries portion of the display  the dos sceen covered. 
Of course the user could click on the screen and it will come back, but
my 
user says this is not acceptable. 

I have the dos screen set so it will exit as soon as the web page is 
displayed, but it still leaves the iseries display blank where it
appeared 
momentarily.

Is there a way I can force the dos screen come up on the second monitor?

I've tried dragging it over there, but doesn't continue to go there on
the 
next test.

I'm using this method, since the http string is so long, it seemed like
a 
convenient way to run it and not have to sign in everytime this is 
selected.

I'm looking for some work arounds that can make this work.

Thanks for any help.

Regards,

Darrell
