to Pick up edition selected to use it in Work Flow

Hi,

Is there any way to pickup the name of the edition selected by the user from the available editions to use this later on in the work flow to compare with the latest edition.

Thanks,

Kumar

In general - yes.
In specific - you need to provide more information about what you are trying to do and how you are trying to do it.

If you setup a custom menu item to invoke the show_env.cgi program you can see the kind of form data that is available to you when you select an edition and then run that menu command.

If you are planning to select an edition within the context of a running workflow - you will have to create your own CGI code to display and handle the selection of editions.

Hi,
My requirement is, user selects the required edition to be compared and clicks on the custom menu item under file menu to initiate the work flow.

Through Perl script, a new edition will be created using CLT and this new edition will be compared with the edition selected by the user and work flow will be invoked to assign the task to the next level user.

All I need is, to obtain the value/string of the edition which has been selected by the user before creating new edition and initiating the work flow thru' menu item.

Can I use only Perl Script to initiate the above as I need to invoke only CLTs instead of CGI ? and the way to obtain the value of the edition selected.

Thanks,
