Validate legacy input with Active Script?
Posted: 01 May 08 5:04 PM

I'm working in SLX 6.2. I have a legacy form that I want to validate with an Active Script, just because I prefer to work with Active Scripts.
So how to I do set the postable property of a legacy form to true or false using an active script? |

Just convert the legacy form over to "Activex".. it's the "best practice" thing to do no hastle.
Use the "forms converter" in the Architect if you do not want to do it manually. We do it all the time.

Hi Dan,
You could also do something like this using a VBScript attached to the WhenValidate of the legacy form:
Sub Main
Dim i
Dim frm
Dim blnResult
'Loop through the open forms
For i = 0 to Application.Forms.Count - 1
'Find the Add Contact Screen form.
If Application.Forms(i).Name = "frmAddContactScreen" Then
'Save the reference to this form
Set frm = Application.Forms(i)
End If
Next
'Do your validation - checking email address has something in
If len(frm.cdEmail.Text) <> 0 Then
blnResult = True
Else
blnResult = False
End If
'Validation Result
frm.Postable = blnResult
'Clean Up
Set frm = Nothing
End Sub
But upgrading the forms is the better way to go.
Cheers,
Steve |
