Juan,

I have to admit, at first I didn't believe you.  I have never run REFORMAT before.

But I found the documentation, and boy is it old

http://docs.hp.com/en/32209-90024/ch05s11.html

So, I took a peak at the program... from what I can tell, and this is a guess, try

FILE REFFILE=     (For REFENTITY)
FILE OUTFILE=     (For OUTENTITY)

Thats a guess from doing a FCOPY ;HEX;CHAR

Good luck.

Hello There,



Could you, please, tell me how I can write the file command to run REFORMAT.PUB.SYS, because the manual HP Data Entry and Forms Management System (VPLUS) Reference Manual > Chapter 5. Reformatting Specifications.

Is telling:

the following commands are needed to run REFORMAT:



:FILE REFENTITY =REF1
:FILE BATCH=BAT1
:FILE OUTENTITY =OUT1
:RUN REFORMAT.PUB.SYS



But, “REFENTITY” and “OUTENTITY” have 9 characters, and should be 8 or less.



Thanks in advance, your help is really appreciated.

Juan
