1048.0. "Invoke WPSPLUS from DCL?" by KERNEL::SMITHERSJ (Living on the culinary edge....) Tue Jul 14 1992 18:03

    Can I invoke the WPS-PLUS editor from DCL $WPSPLUS/EDIT with V3
    at all?  I tried this but it complained about WPL$SHR not being
    defined. When I did define this to point to OA$LIB (as you can
    ALLIN1/LIST for list processing) but it still could not find 
    WPSEDIT.EXE
    
    $wpsplus/edit DISK$FTUSERS1:[SMITHERSJ.A1V30.DOC1]ZUFPOKRV2.WPL
    
    %DCL-W-ACTIMAGE, error activating image WPL$SHR:WPSEDIT.EXE
    -CLI-E-IMAGEFNF, image file not found
    $255$DUA71:[ALLIN1.LIB_SHARE]WPSEDIT.EXE
    
    You can invoke WPS-PLUS from DCL in v.4 and a customer was led to
    believe it was possible in v.3 of ALL-IN-1.  Can anyone confirm
    if this is true or not?  
    
    Many thanks

The ALLIN1 DCL command is used only for activating ALL-IN-1 images. If you have both ALL-IN-1 and WPS-PLUS/VMS installed on your system then the commands WPSPLUS/LIST and WPSPLUS/SORT will run different images from the images run by the commands ALLIN1/LIST and ALLIN1/SORT.

The stand-alone WPS-PLUS Editor, Formatter and Converter, which are part of WPS-PLUS/VMS, are not supplied as part of ALL-IN-1 V3.0 (or the WPS-PLUS V4 update to ALL-IN-1 V2.4). This was stated in all Functional Specifications for integrating WPS-PLUS V4 into ALL-IN-1 V2.4 and V3.0. It appears that the customer was misled by someone who didn't know the facts. Richard
