Calling legacy script using DoInvoke Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Hi all,

I browsed through some of the other posts on this topic but nothing has worked for me yet. I am trying to call a legacy script from an external .net application. Here is what I have so far:

[code]
Dim slx As New SalesLogix.SlxApplication
slx.BasicFunctions.DoInvoke("activescript", "Personal:Personal:Inf Manage User Specific Picklist View btnUpdateAll_WhenClick")
slx.Quit()
[/code]

I receive the following status when printing out the InvokeStatusText:
"An unusual error has occurred when executing Personal:Inf Manage User Specific Picklist View btnUpdateAll_WhenClick. Contact your system administrator. 0x0 @0: activescript Personal:Inf Manage User Specific Picklist View btnUpdateAll_WhenClick Exception: Could not load plugin Personal:Inf Manage User Specific Picklist View btnUpdateAll_WhenClick"

A few of things that are wrong with the code sample you posted.

1) "ActiveScript" refers to a VBScript plugin. For a legacy basic script plugin you'd use "Basic".

2) The second parameter for the call to DoInvoke has "Personal:" repeated twice.

3) Don't call slx.Quit(). I assume you're wanting to "end" your session with SLX. If this is the case, just use "slx = Nothing" instead.

So, it would look like this:

Dim slx As New SalesLogix.SlxApplication
slx.BasicFunctions.DoInvoke("basic", "Personal:Inf Manage User Specific Picklist View btnUpdateAll_WhenClick")
slx = Nothing

Make sense?

Thanks Ryan! By making those changes the script now executes, not successfully, but that's another issue to deal with...
