3085.0. "Read in RTF documents, HOW TO DO" by BGO01::ARNEM (The Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster sounds nice, or what ?) Thu Jul 29 1993 13:55

Hi,

I've tried to add an extra converter to ALL-IN-1, but so far no luck.
What i'm trying to do is, add an RTF converter so i can get RTF files
from VMS/PCSA direct and into ALL-IN-1 with help of the CDACVTLIB 2.0.

What i've done is install 2.0 of CDACVTLIB before ALL-IN-1 3.0, and 
defining a RTF format in MFT. 

When doing a gold-get i just get the ASCII/RTF code and the document is
not converted, only gets RTF code.

What i wonder is, should i install the CDAPAT011 after the CDACVTLLIB 2.0 ??
Should i install manually the DDIF$WRITE_RTF.EXE(and read) ??
Should i update the OAET.MAR manually ??
And at the end, should i define new formats, or ???

And last but not least, why do not the installation procedure do all this,
when i had CDACVTLIB 2.0 installed before i upgraded ALL-IN-1 to 3.0


Just trying not to go complete offline

Hi and thank's for reply,

I've allready seen 1036.*, and was still confused. So what i want is a 
point for point what to do. I can try here and now:

1. ALL-IN-1 3.0

2. CDACVTLIB 2.0

3. Install manually INSTALL> ADD DDIF$READ_RTF.EXE     (and put them into
		INSTALL> ADD DDIF$WRITE_RTF.EXE    OA$CDA_STARTUP)

4. Update OAET.MAR

5. Relink ??

6. Define the new format in MFP - MFT


Is this close.....

    Good morning Arne,
    
    yes, that the way it works.
    
    But remember, adding the RTF format in OAET.MAR -> do this with
    CM and be sure to add the format in the right alphabetical order !!!
    
    Ciao

    Arne,
    
    in CM select OAET but type = OAMAR and not MAR !!!
    
    Best Regards
