Does SHELL still work in NAV 2009 Classic??

Votuc · 2010-12-22

I got a warning on the following code in a codeunit while upgrading from NAV 4.0 to NAV 2009 "CLASSIC"

Function 'SHELL' is obsolete for Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server.

SHELL('c:\Navision\reports.exe -t');

We will be upgrading this client to the RTC later but for now they will just run Classic. Will the shell command be ok to leave alone for now?

Also, if anyone has an idea of what I can replace it with for the RTC - I'd appreciate it.

windows scripting host automation can be used instead of shell.

If you don't want to see the warning write the code with

if not isservicetier then
