Subject:   Les Bell's rexxobj.html

I'm looking for a page a page written by Les Bell: 

<http://www.lesbell dot com dot au/rexxobj.html>

which details the options available with SysCreateObject.

Sadly, I get a 404.

Could someone point me to the pages new home?

Thanks,

Jerry Garren

Well, I don't know what Les had  but
I prefer both belt and suspenders if I can have them. <g>
If anyone has a copy and it is legal to share it I'd
appreciate a copy.

Thanks for the quick reply.

I don't have a copy, but you can get a copy from the WayBackMachine
<http://www.waybackmachine dot org>.  The latest version they list is at
<http://web.archive dot org/web/20010417021642/http://www.lesbell dot com dot au/rex
xobj.html>.  I had a look at Les's current page, and I suspect the
missing Rexx page is an error.  There still appears to be a bit of OS/2
info there.  So, an e-mail to him may get him to fix it.

Also, looking at page in the archive, the info that is not in the Rexx
help, is the setup strings.  These can be found in the Warp Toolkit,
which is supplied with MCP and eCS.  Also, if you have XWorkplace
installed, a lot of the setup strings are in its help.  The way I get
at it is to create a "Setup String" object, and then press F1 and
follow a couple of links.
