Thanks Doug.
Just another product that forces me to dance to their tune rather than
letting me work in the most efficient manner that 20 years of experience
has taught me. Yes, they're much smarter and better than me.
But then, my daughter informs me just how stupid I am on a daily basis! :-)
So, I guess WED is my editor of choice. After all the crap I'm forced
to download and install, one would think simple editing functions would
work. I guess not. [sigh]

Hi Bill:
BDT uses UOJ for connection which does not support environmental variables.
You would have to shell out to get them and convert the files manually. I
looked in the manuals and did not find an alternative.
BDT does not have a keep alive. The default for a UOJ session is an hour.
If you do not do anything in that hour you have to reconnect again. BDT's
advance settings do not allow you to change the default even though UOJ
supports changing this parameter.
Regards,
Doug

I installed the new U2 BDT (Basic Developer's Toolkit) and attempted to
use it. In the U2 resource tab (after I created a server connection) one
gets a list of accounts. Drilling in one gets a list of files. These
include links ('Q'-files). When I click on one of the program links I get
the message:
"Could not get contents of directory "E:\UDAccounts\Dev\@ABO_SYS\**BP" on
server "devserver". Error message: Unable to find the directory."
Ok, the file link I'm accessing looks like:
7 Dev (0)-> AE VOC ABOBP
Top of "ABOBP" in "VOC", 3 lines, 28 characters.
*--: P
001: LD
002: @ABO_SYS\BP
003: @ABO_SYS\D_BP
Bottom.
...so it appears the tool is appending the file path onto the VOC
information. Unfortunately, in UD on Windows we use environment variables,
so the reference "@ABO_SYS" is a defined environment variable path. It
appears, therefore, that one cannot reference programs and data from links.
Secondly, there doesn't seem to be any timeout manager (or keepalive
setting) because my RPC times-out because I've set it to do so.
I guess this alone makes use of this tool problematic for me. Can anyone
inform me that I'm mistaken and simply have to make a few settings to
overcome these basic impediments? I guess I just have to go back to WED.
:-(
Thanks,
