Hello everybody,
I am trying to execute a batch file from the WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger without any
luck. I have used the host as follows
HOST('genfile.bat',NO_SCREEN);
HOST('dir c:\orawin95\forms45\*.tel>ftp_lot.tel', NO_SCREEN);

The host command is executed but not the commands in the batch file. Which is supposed to compile a list of certain file; The next HOST command is used to put the listed file into one from where they read and inserted into forms as list items.
So, get the first host command to compile the files in the first instance.
Cheers
