The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Mail for PC Networks 3.2, when used with:
    • the operating system: MS-DOS

This article was previously published under Q119411

SYMPTOMS

The SCRCOMP.EXE script compiler program compiles an ASCII script file into an encrypted script file for use with EXTERNAL.EXE and Remote client programs. When you use the -Pscript option with SCRCOMP.EXE to test scripts as described on pg. 382 of the Microsoft Mail 3.2 "Administrator's Guide," the program always plays the INITIALIZE script.

CAUSE

The SCRCOMP.EXE program always sets the -P option to INITIALIZE, regardless of the script specified.

RESOLUTION

It is possible to work around the problem by swapping the INITIALIZE label with the label of the script to be tested; CALL, ANSWER, RESET, or DISCONNECT, and execute the SCRCOMP.EXE program with the -P option.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, MS-DOS workstation. We are researching this problem. and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
