Add function button

Conte Ercole

Hello all,
some one can tell me how to develop a function button in a purchase order.

LANGUAGE : VBCODE
ACTION : shell ("C:file.exe docnum;series")

where docnum is the document number of the actual pourchase order
and series is the series of the actual pourchase order.

thak you all

Hello all,

here is a solution for a call of an external programm in C# Code:

try
{
                string docNum = SwissAddonFramework.UI.Components.TextEdit.GetFromUID(pVal.Form, "8").Value;
                string series = SwissAddonFramework.UI.Components.ComboBox.GetFromUID(pVal.Form, "88").Value;
                
                string fileName = @"C:programma.exe";
                string arguments = docNum + ";" + series;
                System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(fileName, arguments);
}
catch(System.Exception exe)
{
                MessageBox.Show("Error in FunctionButton: " + exe.Message, "OK");
}

Add this code in the module Function Button and you can start the external programm "programma.exe" with docnum and series as arguments per click on the function button.
