From a Genie session, make sure PROFOUNDUI (or the name of the library that you installed Profound UI in) is in your library list, and then prompt the PUIWRKSPLF command. Press F1 for help, and you should get a description of the command.

Does that help?

Scott... In the release notes it shows the PUIWRKSPLF command under the "Visual designer and UI framework" heading. Was wondering how it was used in that scenario. Is it a new property? If it is an API that can be called using say the onclick event, I was wondering what it looks like and how it is used.

Haven't loaded the new release yet due to folks on the system but was really wanting to see how that worked.

Thanks!!!!

No, it's a *CMD object. Basically, it's a tool (written with PUI Rich Displays) that provides a list of spooled files that you can click on. It can convert them to TXT or PDF (if you have the appropriate licpgm for PDF installed) and can do things like hold/release spooled files.

If you wanted to run it in a PUI session rather than via genie, you would write a CL program that calls teh command, and then set that up as your initial program, an anonymous program, or a rich display launcher in Atrium... something like that.

Personally, I am not sure I want to advertise this tool too much for 4.8.5, as this was supposed to be a 5.0 feature, and I think the screen design needs some tweaks (very minor stuff).

But if you want to help test it out and give us feedback, that'd be great.
