We are calling Internet Explorer (with a script using c$system) to display reports, which is working great. The problem is page breaks. It seems as though internet explorer is not recognizing the breaks if the last line of the page is blank. If there is data in the last line of a page it seems to break/display correctly. Has anyone else experienced this problem or have any ideas? Or does anyone know of a free small viewer with print capabilities we could use instead?
Thanks, Kim

    when i use html to print which page breake i use the html-code to define a page break.

    For Example:





    when i dosn't need a print-preview i use the mshtml.dll to print the html-page

    Example:

               call "c$run" using 'rundll32.exe mshtml.dll,PrintHTML "c:\\muf
          -                       'frohr\\dummy.html"'.

    KevinB I would be interested if your C$SYSTEM call is being used over Thin or are your apps run locally?

    We have been looking at ways to call IE on a multitude of types of machines that our users have (PC's, Thin-Client Citrix, etc). I would also like to see the code you used to call IE, maybe I can make it work for us.

    Thanks

    If you want to be able to print html in an easy way on thin client, why don't you just use the WebBrowser component?

    Sorry for hijaxing this thread....

    We do use the WebBrowser component for some things. We use it to automatically get driving directions from address to address, lookup zip codes, etc. The issue we have with it is websites that require logins, our users are forced to login over and over all day. With IE they simply pull it up and leave it all day on the same website.

    We have at one time had the IE working using the following:

    Call "DISPLAY_REG_QUERY_VALUE"
    USING HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT,
    WS-RETURN-VALUE,
    WS-RETURN-SIZE,
    "\\HTTP\\shell\\open\\command",
    GIVING WS-STATUS-CODE.

    MOVE 1 TO PTR.
    UNSTRING WS-RETURN-VALUE DELIMITED BY ".EXE"
    INTO WS-RETURN-VALUE1
    WITH POINTER PTR.

    STRING WS-RETURN-VALUE(1:PTR) DELIMITED BY SIZE
    " http://www.msn.com/" DELIMITED BY SIZE
    INTO WS-ADDRESS.

    call "c$system" using WS-ADDRESS, 129.

    This seems to work on some machines and on others it does not. We understand that the registry of different versions of windows is probably the issue.

    One other issue is we also have lots of HP Thin-Client boxes hooked into the system via Citrix so lots of normal Windows logic just does not work on those thin-client boxes.

    This is the reason that I asked about the c$system call used by the other user, I would like to see other methods of getting to IE.

    Thanks

    Very nice, thanks for the direction (code)!

    That leads me to another question: If the system kicks up the window as seen below is there a way to send a new address to it without just starting a new version of the program with a new address? I would like to just keep one IE type window up and just push new addresses to it, so the user does not have 10 IE type windows open.

    Thanks again!!

    I don't see a window below, but you can reuse the browser there is by using the MODIFY verb:

               03 MyBrowser        WEB-BROWSER
                  LINE                  02
                  COL                   02
                  LINES                 34
                  SIZE                  77
                  VALUE                 "[URL]www.msn.com[/URL]". 
              ...
              MODIFY MyBrowser Value = "http://[URL="www.microfocus.com"]www.microfocus.com[/URL]"

    Sorry for not explaining better.....let me try again.

    If we make our system create the IE Type screen (using the logic below as a guide to creating the standard window) how can we change the address in that browser window from another process/program?

    Concept we are trying to hammer down is being able to open IE browser and update that browser with different addresses instead of opening multiple IE browsers.

    A component is bound to its window, e.g. you cannot modify it directly. However, if you are running threads, you can use the message mechanism between threads to achieve this.

    I played with threads for most of the day (not what I was scheduled to do, but it was fun). I was attempting to use the Send - Receive commands but could never get the IE Type screen program to see "receive" any info.

    I was attempting:

    To start the IE Type program I had a CALL THREAD {PROGRAM NAME} HANDLE IE-HANDLE.

    After it was up and running on the screen, I minimized it (or moved it out of the way) and went back into the original program and did a SEND [working storage variable] in handle {handle name}.

    In the ID type program I had the logic running that was from the AcuDocs samples to RECEIVE [working storage variable] from any thread. I then checked the value of the working storage variable the value from the first program but never got anything.

    I know this is just words and no code, but I had to remove the code I was playing with at the end of the day (since I was in a production program).

    Is there a sample program out there that would help with this?

    There is an example of send/receive on the web site, go to:
    http://supportline.microfocus.com/examplesandutilities/extend/SamplePrograms/GeneralProgTechniques.asp

    Look for sendrcv.zip

    Do note that as I presume your IE program is put in an ACCEPT state, you will have to tell it to accept messages, you do this:
    ACCEPT myscreen ALLOWING MESSAGES
    An incoming message will then throw the exception W-MESSAGE (95) to which you will respond with a RECEIVE command to get the message.

    OK I throw up the white flag, I know when I am in over my head and I am now officially there. I have tried 100's of different things over the last 3 days (with the help from this board) and I am down to what is attached in the zip file. I hope that I am close but I really have not clue, I might be miles away.

    Attached is a zip file containing two Bench 8.1 projects:
    1. TRIPIE is the IE type screen with the receive logic.
    2. CALLIE simply has 3 buttons: 1st button calls TRIPIE in thread, 2nd button sends new address to thread & 3rd button sends different new address to thread.

    Thanks for any help and for all the previous help.

    We are calling Internet Explorer (with a script using c$system) to display reports, which is working great. The problem is page breaks. It seems as though internet explorer is not recognizing the breaks if the last line of the page is blank. If there is data in the last line of a page it seems to break/display correctly. Has anyone else experienced this problem or have any ideas? Or does anyone know of a free small viewer with print capabilities we could use instead?
    Thanks, Kim
    Wow G. Forseth, you are the man!

    I could say that I was close just to make myself feel better (but that would be a lie)!!

    Thanks for all the help this concept now works and I can't wait to release it on the users for feedback.

    That's what I like to hear, new functionality to the users! Way to go! :-)
    Glad I could be of help.
