Key Benefits

New! .NET Interoperability - Programs written in .NET are more robust and secure. This feature allows .NET applications to access and automate Aviva® for Desktops™ and vice-versa. C# automation samples are also provided to guide programmers.

New! Printer Associate - Aviva® for Desktops™ now supports the TN3270 printer associate feature. The printer session is activated automatically when the display session is activated.

New! Installation - The installation of Aviva® for Desktops™ is now more flexible and quicker. The administrator is able to configure the program for one or for all session users simultaneously. Also, an express setup has been added to speed up the installation if only one type of connectivity is used.

Property Manager - provides an intuitive single point of entry for complete off-line configuration and customization of all Aviva sessions and connection types

Tracing and Logging Utility - provides the in-depth analysis needed to streamline problem solving, which can be configured either remotely or locally within the session

Hot-Backup - provides automatic reconnection and a dynamic link selection across all connection types, minimizing down time

Session Template - contains the default values that are used by the Session Wizard to create a new display or printer session; can be customized by the system administrator for a specific corporate environment

Wizards - provide step-by-step instructions to create new session and destinations using the default values contained in the session templates

SMS Support - provides scripts that allow attended or unattended installations of Aviva for Desktops across the network using Microsoft Systems Management Server

ActiveX Automation - Aviva for Desktops functions both as an ActiveX Controller and Server, which means it can control or be controlled by other ActiveX compliant applications such as MS Excel or Visual Basic

WinHLLAPI - enables third party applications that are written to this API to communicate with Aviva for Desktops

Macro Dialog Editor - lets users automate routine tasks such as logging on to the host and copying information between sessions; macros can be assigned to keyboard mappings, toolbar buttons, menu items, hotspots and screen triggers through the Macro Manager

VBA Compatible Macro Language - an advanced macro language that supports the familiar VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) syntax promoted by Microsoft in all its MS Office products, so that users familiar to MS Office applications don't have to learn a new macro language

GUI Front-End Generation - with its support for a wide variety of APIs and tools (HLLAPI, ActiveX Automation, VBA macro language, etc.), Aviva for Desktops is the ideal platform to develop GUI front-end applications that hide the complexity of SNA connectivity to the end-user

Graphical Toolbar - can display multiple graphical toolbars that can be customized and positioned anywhere on the screen; includes the ToolTips feature that displays a descriptive text for each button

Screen Triggers - a Screen Trigger is a pre-defined area of the session window in which Aviva for Desktops searches for a specified word or phrase generated by the host computer and depending on the word or phrase sent, executes a pre-assigned macro or emulation text string

Toolbar and Menu Editors - lets LAN administrators add, move, remove or rename menus as well as assign menus to macros and emulation text - identical to that of standard Microsoft Office products

Host color remapping - lets LAN administrators customize the user interface to maximize screen visibility

Configure Hotspots - pre-set by the administrator in the session template, eliminating the need to use keyboard function keys

MAPI-compliant messaging - enables users to send display screens and diagnostic files to LAN administrators via e-mail

ToolTips on OIA line - the OpView line converts cryptic Operator Information Area (OIA) symbols into plain English (via ToolTips) which provides an intuitive way to streamline connecting problems

OIA merged with status bar - the contents of the OpView can also be presented as text information in the status bar, providing more space to display data
