Running Compiled Code from Disk (OpenInsight Specific)

I was looking for a way to create an install program on disk ($install) and then execute the OI compiled code from within OI. I have done this in AREV by saving the file to "DOS A:\INSTALL" then compiling it. To run it I used EXECUTE "RUN DOS A:\INSTALL". This has always worked great. Is there an equivelant in OI?

Brandon,
You will have to copy the object code into SYSOBJ before running it.
Suggestion:
1. Look at the RDK install program … it may already do what you need.
2. However you decide to do upgrades, build it into your product … perhaps a menu item. That way the user does not have to do any command line stuff … it will be automated.
