ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1. Send Appends to Host ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This menu selection displays the ForaUp dialog to assist you in uploading and
posting your append files to the IBM host system. Before you can upload and
post appends, you must be logged-on to the IBM host system.
ForaUp - Send Append Dialog
This dialog contains the following fields and controls;
Choose 3270 Session
Each active 3270 emulator window contains a short name, A thru Z. ForBrows
provides up to six radio buttons, to allow you to specify which 3270 window is
to be the target of the append upload. You should click on the button for the
session that is connected to the IBM conferencing system.
If there are no 3270 sessions active, all radio buttons will be disabled, as
well as the "Send" button.
List File Spec(s)
This entry field will be pre-filled with drive and pathname you gave for
appends in ForBrows's Set Installation Defaults dialog. If you wish to list
files in other subdirectories, you may specify other drive and path information
in this field.
Select Append Files for Processing
This listbox contains the names of files. You may select files by clicking
mouse button 2 over a list entry. After an entry is selected, you may process
the file by clicking on the View, Send, or Discard buttons.
List Button
Lists the files specified in the FileSpec(s) entry field.
View Button
View (browse) the selected file.
Send Button
Upload the selected file to the IBM host, and append it to the appropriate
forum on the IBM master conferencing disk. The append is sent to the 3270
session specified via the "Choose 3270 Session" radio button.
After append is sent, it is copied to a \POSTED subdirectory. The \POSTED
subdirectory will be a child of your append subdirectory.
This button will be disabled if you do not have a 3270 window connected to an
IBM host.
Technical Note This function uses EHLLAPI calls to drive the targeted 3270
session, and requires ACS3EHAP.DLL in the LIBPATH, if you are using the OS/2
Communications Manager. If you are using PMHPO, you will need TAPHLL32.DLL.
Erase Button
Erase the selected file(s). You will be asked to verify the erasure.
Cancel Button
Exit the ForaUp dialog. If you press Cancel during an upload, ForaUp will
terminate its processing of the upload; however it has no way to tell either
the OS/2 Communications Manager or PMHPO to terminate the SEND (upload).
