    Answered Multiple progspec.ini

    A personalized folder / propath sounds like you are not using version control? Local dev = 'personal'. Your 'recent file list' is the thing which I continuously undo from version control if I accidentally use the procedure editor. Unfortunately you cannot stack INI files: prowin -inifile...

    OpenEdge GUI development tools on 4K laptop screens--yay or nay?

    Question Non mandatory parameters

    If you make your inputs variant (for example a temp-table with key value pairs) you can also achieve optional parameters, but I think this can be overkill.

    Question Non mandatory parameters

    Question Using SQLEXP to generate CSV - Excel reads data as padded with spaces

    sqlexp formats output into columns with headers, which according to Progress KB - Can SQL Explorer (sqlexp) output query results without column names when using the -outfile command line option? , cannot be turned off.
