Applications / Re: dbExpert/REXX help needed
« on: 2008.04.08, 16:27:06 »
Hello Dennis,
yes, can you at least cut and paste code here for us to look at? Then we may be able to help you out.
I have a copy of DBE 2.09 running at home to try out if needed.
WarpCafé is right... the rexx implementation i DBE doesn't handle things outside the macro itself, so no shared variables or system calls. All macros behave as they've got "procedure" set, a bit annoying to be tied down like that.

. It took me about half an hour to hack a function in REXX that does almost the same as your dll. The benefit of having it coded in REXX is that no additional dll is required. 


and arrange searchable code snippets, I'll try to provide a couple every day (If I can come up with some).
