SYMPTOM(s):
MESSAGE statement doesn't receive input from external file redirection
Batch job running a 4GL program receives input via file redirection
There is a MESSAGE statement within the 4GL program contains an UPDATE statement to receive input.
MESSAGE "abc" VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX
QUESTION BUTTONS YES-NO
UPDATE b.
CAUSE:
Progress ignores the view-as alert-box phrase when in batch mode. Therefore, there won't get any "input" value since there is no alert-box.
FIX:
There is currently no known solution that allows message alert-box's to receive redirected input.
