Hi Thanks to all the support I have been getting, I now feel in control of creating Accuterm screens etc
Now I need to start allowing my client to start testing the work I have done but have come across a stumbling block. I have recorded a script to run to logon to their account in jBase but need to make this script auto start when they select the correct session under the file tab.
I know I am missing something simple like a tick boss but cant find it.
Can anyone help please
Thank you all in anticipation

Nothing quite as simple as a tick box. What you are looking for is a "Layout file".
Start your AccuTerm session and log in. Then from the 'File' menu, choose 'Save Layout As', and choose your location and name. Now, open that file with a text editor, and add the reference to the script. Here is one of the layout files that we use:
{"layoutVersion":1,"Windows":[{"Left":-21529,"Top":1967,"Width":9204,"Height":6912,"Maximized":true,"Arrange":0,"Sessions":[{"Profile":"QM-LIVE.atsp","Active":true}]}],"Script":"C:\\\\Progfiles\\\\Accuterm\\\\atlogon.atsc"}
If you are using AccuTerm 7, then the layout files are structured differently. In that case you would want to ADD a line that looks like this:
Script=C:\\\\Progfiles\\\\Accuterm\\\\atlogon.atsc
Amend the path and script names as required.
Of course, there is an official way of doing this (look it up in the manual - search for "Running a Script from a Layout File") - but I find manually editing it in to be easier.
Cheers,
Brian
