Distributing Procedure Files

Procedure files are files that contain Progress source code (.p) or run code (.r). Store procedure files in those directories that Progress can access most rapidly, preferably on a local hard disk attached to each application workstation or Progress AppServer machine.

Once you have distributed your procedure files, modify the PROPATH environment variable in the startup files on each application workstation to include the directory search path that contains those files. The following example sets the PROPATH environment variable to the working directory (.) and the \ACCTPAY directory on the C: drive of a Windows workstation:

SET PROPATH=.;C:\ACCTPAY 

In Windows, you can use the registry or progress.ini file to set this environment variable. For more information, see Maintaining User Environments."
