UltraEdit VS the Compiler

When compiling an IB source with a legacy compiler directive, the Comet Utility Console ask to add the CAPI command:

Comet Utility Console - Version 1.06
Processing command file: J:\RAM\COMET00\OBDCTST.IBS
J:\RAM\COMET00\ODBCTST.IBS(30) : warning: CAPI commands not found - using oid commands
Paste following line to source file:

! Src(ODBCTST.IBS,) Obj(ODBCTST,Y2K)


I never used CAPI before, can I just say that the above line does nothing good for a living. I had to search for a while to figure out the I was missing some slash-slash stuff. So finaly, hint should had been:

! //IB// Src(ODBCTST.IBS,) Obj(ODBCTST,Y2K)


Need I mention that dear "CAPI" is an absentee in the documentation. I had to hunt for a while to find the syntax and I fought with it even longer to get it to work properly (it kept putting the object in the source folder).

Also a little note about the "old commands", it did not recognise the Options:E (I use the !L TXX,E command line)
