ACS - shortcuts to Schemas function

Access Client Solutions has shortcuts for accessing the Run SQL Script function: plugin RSS for the start program and menu command "Run SQL Scripts" for 5250 window.

It would be nice to have the same functionality for the new Schemas function.


Use Case:

Shortcuts would make it possible to directly start the Schemas function from the OS and a 5250 session.

In the OS one could create a OS shortcut calling the start program with plugin name. E.g. "acslaunch_win-64.exe /plugin=Schemas /system=xxxxx".

In the 5250 session one could add a menu command to the keyboard setup, e.g. assign key Alt-D (for "database") to menu command "Schemas".

    This is available in July 2017 update.  The command line format is:
    acslaunch_win-64.exe /plugin=db2 /system=lp13ut28

    For new 5250 display configurations, the button will be added by default.  For existing configurations, the button may be added to the 5250 session by:
