Hi List,
i was about to embark on a project for a client and i figured i better confirm the following before i begin.

we have an index -> The Customer's PO Number
sometimes it comes in Mixed Case .......

my question is -> are Keys always case sensitive...
i'm pretty sure the answer is yes but i dont want to start this workaround unless i'm 100% sure....i just want to make sure there is no cool feature in pxplus that i'm unaware of

thanks

jeff

Hi All,

So often times we will gosub or perform a routine that is also the code behind a multi-line. For Example CUSTOMER_ID_ENTERED. 

When we want to know if this came from nomads or from code we check ID$="CUSTOMER_ID".
I know it may seem like I'm splitting hairs but i feel this is not 100% foolproof and i have case where I really need to know (was this routine fired off from Nomads via the multi-line)

is there a way i can be 100% sure?

thanks

jeff

i think i figured it out.
this obj command gave me the position in pixels.
i was then able to reference it in powershell and hover mouse over button..
that is what i was looking for

1520 let WINDOW_OBJ$=obj(0)
1530 let WINDOW_COLUMN=int(dec(WINDOW_OBJ$(21,2)))
1540 let WINDOW_LINE=int(dec(WINDOW_OBJ$(23,2)))
1550 let BUTTON_OBJ$=obj(BUTTON_1.CTL)
1551 let BUTTON_COLUMN=int(dec(BUTTON_OBJ$(21,2)))
1552 let BUTTON_LINE=int(dec(BUTTON_OBJ$(23,2)))

Oops - I thought that was Tom posting that.

Hi Mike
i was trying to mimic what the editor was doing so i did something like this

<p>Hinge Locations are measured from Top of Door</p>
<p>Hinge Location 1: 7-12</p>
<p>Hinge Location 2: 7-12</p>
<p>Hinge Location 3: 7-12</p>

and it put a scroll bar (this is a general summary of html...any how i changed it to just
put <br/> after each line and the scrolling stopped...but i would like to know if i did anything wrong.
i dont think i was exceeding a limit.

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?

Thank you Allen and Mike. I appreciate it.
