0905 -
090501 - Follow up ref SDS 2 0000, ref SDS 1 0000.
090502 -
090503 - Received a letter from Gary this morning saying...
090504 -
090505 -    1.  Subject: Error launching file
090506 -        Date: Tue, 20 Jul 2004 09:24:34 -0700
090513 -         ..
090514 -    3.  I put a file name in an SDS record, and tried to launch it, but
090515 -        the name got truncated:
090517 -         ..
090518 -        C:\glj\Documents\MandS\Constructive Sims\Garold Johnson\DPD\Radio_Products_2004-Jul-09.doc
090520 -         ..
090521 -    4.  generated the following in 00903.cmd
090522 -
090523 -        %SIE% "C:\glj\Documents\MandS\Constructive Sims\Garold Johnson\DPD\Radio_Products_2004-Jul-0"
090525 -         ..
090526 -    5.  I verified that the filename is correct in the record.
090528 -         ..
090534 -
090536 -  ..
090537 - Study shows a couple of issues...
090538 -
090539 -    1.  The system to open a file with another program does not
090540 -        operate when there is an anchor above the filename.
090542 -  ..
090543 - Changed the code to accomodate anchors above a target line for opening
090544 - a file for another program, reported in the record on 031102.
090545 - ref SDS 1 8G9N
090547 -         ..
090548 -    2.  The end of the filename is being changed as follows...
090550 -                      ..
090551 -                     Jul-09.doc
090553 -                      ..
090554 -                     Jul-0[ASCII char 5]
090556 -  ..
090557 - Study found that work reported on 031102 (actually performed on 040618
090558 - to support opening long filenames, ref SDS 2 5O4N) had misplaced
090559 - getscr 1 in macro 136 that is part of 000008.  getscr 1 restores the
090560 - initial relative position of the file after placing the cursor at the
090561 - end of the string, and so setcur 70 in 00903 was not reading the end
090562 - of the file correctly, and this caused the code to truncate the
090563 - filename, as reported by Gary today, per above. ref SDS 0 TU6X  The
090564 - solution was to move getscr 1 to the next code level after 00903
090565 - executes. reported in the record on 031102. ref SDS 1 8G9N and
090566 - ref SDS 1 054F

090902 - fixing the problem reported this morning, per above. ref SDS 0 TU6X
090904 -  ..
090905 - Request feedback on results.
090907 -  ..
090908 - Put an SDS update on the Internet in dir \09 with updated SDS code
090909 - for Gary to try opening the file that previously failed.
