When a program script like this "run aa", of course, the program is compiled, and when run the program by menu, the system prompt
--------------------------------------------
** "aa" was not found. (293)
Press space bar to continue.
--------------------------------------------
when you press space bar or F1 the system exit to the logon interface.

But when you Press F4 button, the system enter Progress Editor environment.

How can I resolve this problem? BTW, the The user who run the program has no privilege of Progress Editor.

Thanks.
 
Yeah

Yeah, That's it (I write "aa", just want to encounter the error), But When you press F4 button at this time, I mean, the error prompt, The system enter Progress Editor, Even the user has no privilege of Progress Editor.
 
Hi CurZon, Thanks for your reply, but it's not my question.

Gus,

I don't know anything about MFG Pro, but "aa" is not running because it is not in your propath.
 
If the user is being returned to the editor, then clearly they do have editor privilege.

Like I said, I don't know MFG PRO, but maybe these threads on the Peg can point you in the right direction.

The general gist is that if you have an up-to-date version of MFG PRO, you should be able to disable Editor access through the menu system.

If none of the suggestions work, you could try removing the editor from your client machines - but I must admit, I would have thought there was a simpler way.

Standard behaviour of MFG.
Whilst executing ** custom procedures **, this will force ProWin 32 to open a new Editor to execute. Regardless of permissions. A blank Progress Editor will Always be displayed whilst a custom procedure has been executed. An explenation is persistence. Your custom procedure / .p / is being executed whilst focus is still with MFG/PRO, which is being executed in the background. The Progress memory is being used to support MFG, another instance of Progress memory is needed to execute the custom procedure within.

There is a special resolving in the MFG/Pro.
If the file begins "aa" you must to place the .p file in the directory /path/to/place/aa
If the file begins "ab" you must to place the .p file in the directory /path/to/place/ab
If the file begins "ac" you must to place the .p file in the directory /path/to/place/ac
And so on...

(It is resolved in the the file gprun.i)
