Hi, I'm working with Acucobol 6.0 and I need to modify .scr files using the screen designer . I've got screens with lot of buttons and diferent components I need to reorder the screen add some other components and delete old ones.

Some of this actions I could do in the scr file but it wold be faster and easier if I could view the screen with the screen designer and move the components .

If somebody had done it i'd preciate the help.

thanks in advance.

Good morning, Gabo248

Whenever you try to add an existing screen to an AcuBench project, the available file extensions are:

- Screen Files(*.stf)

- AcuBench 4.x Screen Files(*.smf)

- Screen Import Files(*.out)

If you have one of those formats, you should easily import an existing screen into your Screen Designer.

AcuBench presents also an "All Files(*.*)" option, but I doubt that the final result will be workable, if you try to add this .scr file.

You may want to try this process:
