Title

Macro Locks Up When Using InputBox or MsgBox

Product

PASSPORT PC to Host

Emulation Types

TN3270, TN5250, VT, SCO ANSI, Wyse 60

Issue

I have existing macros that use the InputBox and MsgBox dialog boxes. After upgrading to PASSPORT PC to Host 2010-514, I have noticed that after executing the macros, the session gets locked. The macro cannot be stopped and you must end the Passport.exe process through Windows Task Manager. How can this issue be resolved?

Solution

Rocket Software has released a patch for PASSPORT PC to Host Version 2010-514 which corrects this issue.

Download the Patch

This patch must be applied to version 2010-514 of PASSPORT PC to Host only. If this is not done, unpredictable results may occur.

How to Apply the Patch:

Copy all the files to the directory where PASSPORT PC to Host is installed. The default directory is: C:\Program Files\PASSPORT\
