Programatically executing an event

[billcros]

Is it possible programatically execute an event or request ? For example run a command that would execute event BUTTON.OnClick without the user having to click the button ?

You can use the PerformAction operation to send an action request to the nominated program.

Please post more details if this doesn't help.

Doesn't that require the UPLOAD.ONCLICK event to execute for the action to be performed ? What I want to do is execute the UPLOAD.CLICK event with a user having to tap the UPLOAD button.

I think the operation PeformAction will do this for you.

If the upload button signals action “UPLOAD” and you set the Action property in a PerformAction operation to “UPLOAD” you should get the same logic executed in the server program. It would not know the difference between a physical button touch or a perform action operation being executed.

In RDMLX the Set_Op_ExecuteAction command (shown below) is associated with an event. What event should be used if I want to execute the UPLOAD.ONCLICK event ?

#COM_OWNER.Set_OP_ExecuteAction Event(UPLOAD.ONCLICK) Program(LREX0303) Action(UPLOADDATA) Senddbdata(TRUE) Submitprops_Normal(ALL) Submitprops_Heavy(ALL)

I understand that you don't want to have to touch the upload button button to fire the operation.

How and when do you want it to fire?

Also - are you doing an online or local/offline form?
