A customer is frustrated with the limited text processing capability in PRO-IV, using the traditional NOTES-type file with auto-sequenced line numbers.

Does anyone have any solutions that might send an existing file (set of records) out to a Windows application, such as Wordpad, allowing for text entry and editing, and then sending the file back into the PRO-IV application? This file might typically be 15 - 30 lines of text.

The customer is running PRO-IV 4.6 on UNIX.

Thanks.

This feature is available in version 5. Please look into the version 5 product definition at myproiv.com. Specifically,You can call CLIENT.SEND to send the file and then CLIENT.EXECUTE to start the text processing application.
