Loading NATURAL source into Windows

, , ,

I have Natural for Windows v6.2 and received (from a client) a .TXT file with some modules (maps, subpgms, etc).

Can I load them into my PC and edit them?

Thanks

Hi Carlos
The natural sources are basically just text files.
So the question is really how your client has exported the files: SYSOBJH/SYSTRANS or copypaste or drag’n’drop from another natwin.

You can have a look at the format and compare to the format of sources in your FUSER on windows to get an idea.

If it doesn’t make sense, I would ask the client !

If it’s a standard text file, and it doesn’t contain too many modules, use brute force. Manually cut/paste the modules into individual files in some directory, appending the appropriate suffix, based on module type.

NSP - program
NSM - map
NSN - subprogram

Then select the whole lot and drag/drop them onto a library in Natural for Windows.

To see other suffixes, select the File View tab of the Library Workspace and open the SRC subdirectory of a few libraries in FNAT.
