Sage 100

Is it possible to launch a Sage 100 Framework program like PO Entry via a desktop shortcut/icon? I know it works for VI Jobs and Legacy, but I'm not having any luck with Framework. Therefore, is a Script the next option? Here's the syntax I used for launching v2017 P/R Employee Maint: ""C:\Sage\Sage 100 Standard v2017\MAS90\Home\pvxwin32.exe"" -hd ..\launcher\sota.ini ..\soa\startup.m4p -ARG DIRECT UION user password ABC PRWMAA

Brett, Try this. Create a new shortcut on the desktop. This would be in the target field and make sure that the start in is to the \\share\mas90\home directory. You alos would want to put in valid user credentials. in my example the user is test and the password is the same. C:\Sage1002017Stnd\MAS90\Home\pvxwin32.exe ..\Launcher\sote.ini ..\soa\startup.m4p -ARG Direct uion test test ABC PO_PurchaseOrder_UI

If you don't mind a hard-coded username/password/company, this script should work.

Steve, just wondering is what is the preferred method for finding the PathRoot on a premium install? I've taken to hard coding it though I'm thinking that's not ideal.

'Get Sage 100 Premium Path from Windows Registry Set oReg = GetObject(""winmgmts:\\.\root\default:StdRegProv"") oReg.GetExpandedStringValue HKEY_CURRENT_USER,""SOFTWARE\Sage Software\MAS 90 Business Desktop\Settings"",""MAS90RootDirectory"",PathRoot PathHome = PathRoot & ""\Home"" Set oReg = Nothing

I've taken to putting it in an ini file
