I have a minor issue that I hope someone can help me with.
We have a Progress database that we need to manually load everyday. The command to load it is long enough that it is a real pain to type, and near impossible for someone with little computer experience. We gave the manager of the dept access to the server and showed him how to type it in if necessary, but moreso how to just use the arrow keys to scroll through recently used commands and then just entering on the correct command.
This has been set up like this for a few years now. The other day, the server hung up and required a hard reset. When it came time to load the database, I typed in the command and it worked fine. Unfortunately, I used an older version of the command which consisted of slightly different parameters. I have since made an NCF file to ensure that it is typed correctly and to make it much easier to type since it's just a 5 letter command with no parameters.
Anyway, my question is: Is there any way to remove the incorrect command from that command history without downing the server and restarting it? I don't want this manager using the wrong command if he forgets to just type in the one word command I set up for him. Not having much experience with Novell, I'm not even sure where to begin to look.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
