Our Visual FoxPro Application uses pcAnywhere to transfer data to and from Remote sites. We currently use pcAnywhere V10.5 which allows us to build Auto Transfer procedures into pcAnywhere connection icons which we then call from our VFP application. A typical command is as follows:-
RUN /N awrem32.exe mysite.chf
where mysite.chf is the name of the Remote connection item which contains the relevant phone number and Auto Transfer Procedure.
Now with pcA V.11 we find that Auto Transfer procedures are no longer available - we need to use something called a Command Queue instead. The problem with this is that it does not appear to be possible to call the Command Queue directly from our VFP application. The pcA V.11 Help suggests using the Windows Scheduler to automate Command Queues. However, we need direct control of the Command Queue from our application as we perform processing on the received data before dialing the next location.
Can anyone suggest a solution to this problem please. NB. we have only just finished rewriting our application to cope with the loss of pcA script files in pcA V10.5 - we were not planning on another complete redesign again !!!
