Relations to Other Applications
The InterForm400
®
system is developed for co-existence with other applications. Note the
following:
The InterForm400
®
system does not change the library-list, and it is not
necessary to have the library APF3812 in the library list.
You should not place any objects in the APF3812 library as this library is
exchanged when upgrading InterForm400
®
. (Only InterForm400
®
resources are copied to the new APF3812 library).
The InterForm400
®
system does not change local data areas.
If the InterForm400
®
system is called from another system the system does
not SIGN OFF, instead it returns to the calling program
(APF3812/APFMENU is not the initial program of the user)
If InterForm400
®
is running as a group job, the InterForm400
®
main menu
will show that you can suspend the InterForm400
®
system by pressing the
ATTN-button.
The system may create files in library QTEMP.
An abnormal termination will never harm the InterForm400
®
system.
