Programming / Auto Clicking Buttons and entering data
« on: May 11, 2023, 03:13:11 PM »
Hi List,
i have handled this different ways in the past and i'm wondering if someone has some input on a better way to handle it.
I have a gui screen that has been around a while. The client is giving me a file which is the input for the screen. But unlike something like Excel.Application there is no api for the screen. Is there a better way to simulate the user clicking on buttons and filling out the fields than what i have done in the past which is to:
a.) fire off screen with some argument saying Auto Mode
b.) then go to a routine that will do something like this
1.) Item_Number = passed in item Number
2.) gosub item_number_changed
3.) Quantity = passed in quantity
4.) gosub quantity changed
thanks jeff

Hi Mike,
I'm sorry I should have given an example.
He gave me the code to do something like this:
def object viewer_obj,"Viewer"
and then i could automate some of the functions like saving it.
is this still possible?

Hi List,
A long time ago Gord Davey helped me invoke a viewer object where i could interact with the viewer. I have lost the code and I cant remember how to do it. Can anyone help me with that?
thanks

Hi Allen,

Language / *X Mnemonic / Print Channel Timing Question
« on: March 07, 2023, 10:16:30 AM »
Hi All,
i'm trying to use *X mnemonic to print to a text file and email to customer.
But i noticed that when I enter the call entry point the file is still open and locked for that matter.
I added another close inside of the call routine and that worked (i could access file).
But is this correct / good practice?

ODBC / Re: ODBC Date Issue
« on: March 03, 2023, 03:47:08 PM »
So I just spoke to our Product Manager. Our dates in this file use the format:
DATE-MM/DD/AA
the AA was a Legacy Y2K Data Class. Could that be the issue?

Hi Mike
1.) it returns all the data
2.) i did have a key so i tried the order by and it did not work....
but to be sure i tried on another date field (no key) ...stilll did not work
3.) Order by primary key (no date in key) - did not work
4.) I think the data class might be the problem...
i'm going to take this off line...thanks for the info..

ODBC / Re: ODBC Date Issue
« on: March 03, 2023, 02:25:02 PM »
Devon can i bug you with one last question...
when you say ODBC expects YYYY/MM/DD are you saying that my date needs to be stored in the pxplus Data Dictionary as YYYY/MM/DD -> because our dates are stored as MM/DD/YY in the pxplus data dictionary.
or are you just saying the WHERE clause needs to be in 'YYYY/MM/DD' format.

I just tried it with Excel Power Query and that failed too. I tested it against another database we have (mysql) and that worked. Is it possible there is something wrong with the 7.00 ODBC Driver. This worked when we were using 4.21.

ODBC / ODBC Date Issue
« on: March 03, 2023, 08:14:56 AM »
Hi All,
We are using ODBC Driver 7.00.
If we do the following in Excel
Select Order_Number, Order_Date from "Open Orders" WHERE Order Date > "09/01/2022"
it returns every order up until 12/31/2022 and does not return anything from 2023
if we do
Select Order_Number, Order_Date from "Open Orders" WHERE Order Date > "01/01/2023"
then it returns the 2023 orders
has anyone ever seen this or know what i could be doing wrong?
thanks
jeff
