 |
|
Hello,
I need to open a file from my code which is written in fortran 95. can you tell me which is the subroutine for the same.
I need to edit the file while running my program.
I also need a procedure which will wait for the activity that i am doing in the opened file to terminate.
Thanks,
Ajith.

This is how I launch Notepad.exe from my program ...
| Code: |
INTEGER FUNCTION Launch1_FN()
C -------------------------------
C
C Launch Notepad as file editor
C
C -----------------------------------------------------------------
INTEGER START_PPROCESS@
IA = START_PPROCESS@('Notepad.EXE',' ')
Launch1_FN = 1
END
|
You could be far more sophisticated than this. For example, check IA to see if Notepad did actually launch/ In the second set of apostrophes, you could put the file name you want to edit.
Launch1_FN is an Integer Function so it can be used as a callback from a Menu item (or a button) in a Clearwin program.
Regards

I got the answer for this.
This is what we have to do..
INTEGER i
i = START_PROCESS@('Notepad.EXE','textfilename')
Cheers,
