Rexx
cheers for the info Wayne, but I am still confused (duuhhhhh!)
I know the pc was originally an IBM platform but to be honest it is now a
Microsoft platform and as far as I know it does not (winNT) support REXX -so
when people speak of REXX only being available in the modeller I get confused
cos as far as I know REXX will NOT work AT ALL on WINNT platforms – see what i
mean?
If there are Rexx interpreters available I suppose this gets round the problem
– tho I have my doubts..;-^)
You put forth a good argument on the advantages of rexx over VB but this is
irrelevent if VB works (ie is implemented on the host OS) and REXX isn't!
