Re: automating mainframe application running on Rumba

[gman]

Probably not much help, as I'm not familiar with Rumba, but from their white paper:

VBA-type scripting support
Enables automation via scripting to improve end-user
productivity and streamline business processes. Supports the
execution of existing Micro Focus OnWeb Web-to-Host,
ViewNow, and/or competitive scripts on the Micro Focus
Micro Focus RUMBA PC-to-Host platform, reducing the
administrative costs associated with multi-client-type
installations and consolidations.
Custom application development
Support for EHLLAPI and COM interfaces provides maximum
flexibility and convenience for programmers, developers,
and other IT professionals.

I'm a big fan of O'reilly's Learning Perl. It's geared to people who have previous programming experience imo.

Rumba scripting is pretty easy . if you have access to Rumba scripting editor,you will have all the keywords that it accepts and a short description of them. All you have to do is record all the actions and keep them in a loop.
