RE: Wintegrate message box
Many thanks! I am still having a little trouble with an extra carriage return, but I am able to use most of the code you sent from either unibasic or a posix script. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, February 07, 2004 1:40 AM To: U2 Users Discussion List Subject: Re: Wintegrate message box Sure,you could create a subroutine that writes a wintegrate script to their device...

Re: Wintegrate message box
You could do it if your application has a single piece of code that handles the input of data, in this area you could have it loop and check for a message that needed to pop up when not getting characters. You may also be able to tap into the windows messenger service to send messages to users (on windows platforms). -- Bryan Charlie Rubeor wrote: Does anybody know if it is possible to send a wintegrate pop-up box to a different user, from either a unibasic program or a shell script? Specifically, if Fred is trying to access a record, which is locked by Barney, is it possible to have a pop-up box appear on Barney's screen? Currently, we send an email to Barney, which does not work well if Barney does not have his email client open. This is just one example. Our users are currently thinking up several more applications where they would like to do this, if it is possible. tia Charlie Rubeor Unix/Database Admin The Wiremold Company 800.338.1315 x3498 860.523.3690 fax À votre service -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
