I think I have a solution. I did not think about the VBA macro, and I do love VBA macros, but I think it would be more troublesome (like distributing to the team) than what I am now thinking of trying. I may have to resort to adding one line of code before the Exfmt to accomplish what I want. The one line I would add to PGM_A Unit-Tester would be a call to PGM_B. Within PGM_B, it would extract of the name of it's *caller Pgm (PGM_A), then a DSPPGMREF PGM_A which shows the Screen file and the one Screen-Format in PGM_A, and then with that information and link to the database for more info, I think I can do an ASSUME and KEEP with PGM_B's screen so that the info that I need kept on the screen as PGM_A runs it's unit's tests. In theory, it should work. But thanks for the suggestions. ======================================== >from: [email protected] > I agree - try macros in PC5250 emulation. > If you record it in VBA mode, you can do some pretty hairy programming with it. _______________________________________________ This is the CODE/400 Discussion & Support (CODE400-L) mailing list To post a message email: CODE400-L-Zwy7GipZuJhWk0Htik3J/[email protected] To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/code400-l or email: CODE400-L-request-Zwy7GipZuJhWk0Htik3J/[email protected] Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/code400-l.
