Hi Peter, what about the (undocumented) $assignments("RESOURCES") ?
$assignment is what uniface assembles from a couple of ASN Files (like usys.asn etc.) And if you have identical lines, the new ones will replace the older ones. So sometimes you may be surprised when lines are listed which you can not find in "your" ASN file. Or lines do not have the values as you see it in the ASN file. Especially (because it works on a first fit) is when you use file redirections with wildcards.
As an alternative, I experiment with a "framework" where resources have own ASN files add_to_asn.txt holding logicals like "ABC_HOME" with the (relative) path. After the [RESOURCES] section in the main ASN, I just add a set of #file . esources\add_to_asn.txt #file . esources_help\add_to_asn.txt This allows to spawn commandfiles etc. as $concat($logical("ABC_HOME")," unmyjob.bat ") Let's celebrate 8/8/18 when we will see U10.3, Uli P.S. havn't tested it under WEB conditions, but worked in C/S
