0606 - Summary/Objective
0607 -
060701 - Follow up ref SDS 27 0000, ref SDS 26 0000.
060702 -
060703 - Wayne reports that launching SDS is setting up an incorrect path.
060704 - There are several ways to solve this. ref SDS 0 LUR2
060705 -
060706 - Submitted ref DIT 1 0001 linked to this record for solution scenarios.
060707 - Wayne can call to help apply these ideas, if necessary.  Until we get
060708 - the path fixed, he may need help using the Editor to implement the
060709 - solution.

061102 - Path Seems to be Incorrect in SDS Launch Operation
061103 -
061104 - Received ref DRT 1 0001 from Wayne notifying that he has installed SDS
061105 - code on his home computer, submitted with the letter, ref DIP 5 0001,
061106 - submitted 010211. ref SDS 26 0001
061107 -
061108 -     Wayne's letter today uses some form of alternate text generator,
061109 -     e.g., Java, that does not save directly to ascii text.  As a
061110 -     result, it takes a few extra steps to capture the record for
061111 -     incorporation into SDS for management.
061112 -
061113 - This follows up our call on 010213 getting the SDS update installed on
061114 - his office computer. ref SDS 27 0001

061116 - Wayne says....
061117 -
061118 -      He [successfully installed...] ...01.zip ....the Group Manager
061119 -      and Schedule screen would come up, but enter froze everything up.
061120 -      ref DRT 1 E35N
061121 -      ..
061122 -      I opened sd.bat in a DOS editor and part of the problem may
061123 -      be that the path has I drive rather than C drive.  Also, there is
061124 -      an I:\00\02 in the path similar to the H:\00\02 in my office
061125 -      computer, but installing SDS did not create any C:\00\02
061126 -      directory on the home computer. I haven't looked at SDS.bat.
061127 -      ref DRT 1 V36I
061128 -
061129 -      I also downloaded the other file that has the debug facility, but
061130 -      I am not sure what to do with it.  Do I just unzip it with zu.exe
061131 -      or is there some other procedure? ref DRT 1 L36O
061132 -
061133 - This record reflects planning, in the record submitted on 010211, to
061134 - set the path for Wayne's home computer, ref SDS 26 G67M, citing the
061135 - record on 010205. ref SDS 22 IS6N

061144 -
061145 -      g: sd 51 01 sds.bat has the following...
061146 -
061147 -                  @echo off
061148 -                  cls
061149 -                  c:
061150 -              **  path > xxz.bat
061151 -                  e xxz.bat c:\sd\01\pfix
061152 -                  call xxz
061153 -              **  del xxz.bat
061154 -                  cd\sd\10

061158 -  **  This code should adjust the path automatically.

061161 - Somehow he has code for the development system, which is on his office
061162 - computer.  I seem to have gotten things mixed up, but it is not clear
061163 - how.

061167 -  ..
061168 - Solution Requires Appending Path for SDS to System Path Statement
061169 -
061170 - Wayne can manually create a correct path by the following steps....
061171 -
061172 -       Actually, none of these steps are needed because sds.bat calls
061173 -       c: sd 01 pfix that does all this, so none of following should
061174 -       be needed....
061175 -
061176 -     1.  Go to DOS prompt.
061177 -
061178 -     2.  Enter path > x
061179 -
061180 -     3.  Open x and copy the string into the batch file for sds.bat
061181 -         and then append the following....
061182 -
061183 -                .......;c:\sd\01;c:\01\02
061184 -
061185 -         So, the path statement might look like....
061186 -
061187 -         c:\;c:\windows;c:\windows\system32;...//..;c:\sd\01;c:\01\02
061188 -
061189 -     4.  Additionally, we want to modify sds.bat and mj.bat on Wayne's
061190 -         home computer to include the del commands that are in sds.bat
061191 -         on his office computer....
061192 -
061193 -                del stufq*
061194 -                del 0W*
061195 -                del lst*
061196 -                del 1y*
061197 -                del dirx*
061198 -                del tk*
061199 -                del tq*
061200 -                del mon*
061201 -
061202 -         ...this helps avoid a lot of extraneous temporary files from
061203 -         accumulating on the hard drive in sd 10.
061204 -
061205 - Alternatively, the autoexec.bat file can set the path, and omit it
061206 - from sds.bat.
061207 -
061208 - I am not sure why sd.bat should come into use on Wayne's home
061209 - computer, since ordinarily sds.bat calls the program.
061210 -
061211 - We can work through these options by talking on the phone, when
061212 - convenient for Wayne.
