I created an application ca 20 years ago. J did all the controling of all processes. Sending and receiving data from different sources. Some of the information came over e-mail. What I did was writing a short visual basic program which took the e-mail and wrote it to a file. Another visual basic program was started once in a while and it picked up a file written by J and sent it off according to instructions. I was among receiving info about prices of currencies by e-mail.as well as something else. Last I heard it was still running. Never failed. I remember seing something about e-mail handling in J directly. I never upgraded my app to it. It was possibly written by Henry Rich. I meant to look at it better than my initial glance but never got around to it. I did some socket applications long time ago directly in J. It worked great but those were special apps and no e-mail involved. Played with JHS a bit and meant to learn it better and get it to do e-mail as well as talking to websites. I am not very fluent in it and need to spend more time on it. The visual basic parts doing e-mail was brilliant and very easy to do. Even for me. This was basically only thing I ever did anything with visual basic. On 15 Jun 2015 15:31, "Brian Schott" <schott.br...@gmail.com> wrote:
