247.0. "oa$menu_form - replacement symbol?" by AIMTEC::GRENIER_J () Mon Mar 16 1992 17:49

    Does anyone know of a symbol which can be used to determine
    the Top of Menu Stack, i.e., like oa$menu_form use to?  Was
    this symbol replaced by another?
    
    
    Thanks

    Isn't MAIN always at the top of menu stacks?  What do you want to use
    the symbol for?
    
    Cheers, Tony
247.3oa$menu_form replacement - I guessAIMTEC::GRENIER_JMon Mar 16 1992 21:588
    Tony, the customer is writing an application - the users can be at
    any of the menu's.  He wants a symbol to check the top, if MAIN is
    not, what the top of that menu was, i.e., the application.  Sort
    of what oa$menu_form was previously used for.  This is one of our
    Diamond FT sites (Computer Science).  I am not sure exactly what
    he wants, in case you couldn't tell. :)

    Jean,
    
    I still don't understand - you mean my answer to this last week wasn't
    good enough? (:==:)
    
    This is clearly one confused customer but if they need to know what's
    at the top of the stack to avoid any of their misdirected missiles
    landing in Alpharetta then let's hope someone knows the answer.
    
    regards,

247.5OA$PROFIL_START ???IOSG::PYEGraham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's ApprenticeTue Mar 17 1992 10:0211
    How about the initial form that they have specifid in the PROFIL? If it
    isn't that, which is what they get if they type the MAIN SCREEN key
    BTW, then it's got to be MAIN as Tony said.
    
    We obviously need to know what they are trying to do.
    
    As I said in DIMAONDFT when you first asked this, the symbol was
    removed a long time ago (1988 - V2.3), so they must have been doing
    this some other way since then.
