How to invoke OCEAN script using SKILL

[Dmitriy Shurin]

Hi all!
I have a ready OCEAN script which i have to automate using menus which i
built in SKILL. The problem is if i load in OCEAN SKILL program, which
builds the menu, the values that OCEAN gets from the menu is initial
ones. Therefore even if i change the values OCEAN doesn't get them.
OCEAN script which i have looks like this so far:
..
..
..
load "skill.il"
..
..
..
So i have 2 questions:
1)Is there any way to invoke OCEAN script using SKILL and not vice
versa?
2)Is there any way to make OCEAN script to get values from SKILL menu?

Hi Andrew!
First of all i want to thank you for your help. Of course you are right
that the form has to pass the values to OCEAN script. What i want to be
done is to run OCEAN script that uses form's variables AFTER i fill the
form.
Thank you again for your help.

Your questions don't make any sense. OCEAN is just a set of SKILL
functions, not a different language. So to answer your two questions:

1. load("ocean.ocn")
is how you'd load an OCEAN script. Since an OCEAN script is just a
set of SKILL function calls, it's loaded the same way as any other
bit of SKILL.

2. Since OCEAN is SKILL, you can get values from a SKILL menu
(whatever that means) the same way as a SKILL function could. I
assume you don't really mean a menu, but a form, since menus
wouldn't have values associated with them?

Without some clue as to what the program is actually doing, it's hard
to interpret what you really mean.

Andrew.
