You can set the default editor that sp_ctrl runs when you issue a command that requires input to an ASCII text file, such as a configuration file. By default, sp_ctrl runs WordPad on Windows.
The default text editors are tested and proven to work with SharePlex. If you change the default editor, the new editor must be a native ASCII text editor. Do not use a word processing program or other non-ASCII program, even if you can save a file to ASCII from that program.
To change the text editor for sp_ctrl on a Windows system, you must add the EDITOR variable in the Windows Registry.
Important! Incorrect Registry settings can adversely affect the operation of SharePlex. Consult a System Administrator if you need help with this procedure.
