Applewogys to the net if you have seen this question before. We are trying to set up HyperScript Tools so that a user may click on an icon in windows and be presented with a worksheet loaded with data from an informix database, which they then may modify, report on etc. We have tried to do this a couple of ways: 1) - Write a script to set up datalink and load the worksheet. This works fine when we load HyperScript Tools and run the script. However we can't get HST to do that from the command line. If we run our script like this hstools -hsruntime ourscript HyperScript Tools runs loads the worksheet, but the only thing on the menu bar is the "Hyperscript Tools" option that does nothing. The user need to be able to work with the worksheet after the data is loaded. 2) - Place the script into "startup.scz". This almost works apart from a error which is not discribed in our documentation (we are still waiting on an answer from our support). Anyway this does not seem like a good solution as we will need to load many different worksheets and I don't look forward to having to maintain 50 different scripts all named "startup.scz". Our versions are HyperScript Tools 1.00.WC1, MS Windows 3.1 Thanks in advance, Len.
