The lastest system release 6.0 will now automatically open documents of applications that are already running. I think what Multifinder does to call the menu item labeled OPEN, and then must patch the SFGetFile trap. This seems to work great for most Apps, but the one I'm writing does not call SFGetFile, and it crashes when you open a document under Multifinder when my Application is already running. QUESTION: Is there something similair to the suspend/ resume event (app4event), telling me that the user has requested to open a doc? What is needed is an "open event", and using a bit in the SIZE ID=-1 resource saying the application accepts open events. It this implented in this fasion? Is there documentation on new this Multifinder capability, and writing programs to work with it????? Maybe there are some new Tech Notes to be wriiten/released? (Another question is why haven't any been released on the open from Multifinder feature for us programmer?????) :------------------------------------------------------------: : Tom Carstensen Usenet: tomc@mntgfx.MENTOR.COM : : Mentor Graphics Delphi: CARSTENSEN : : GEnie: CARSTENSEN : : : : If you are sick and tired, of all your dreadful : : dimensions, let me stretch your TIME! : : - Time Operator : :------------------------------------------------------------:
