On a form I have students enter their details, mark their class requests and submit the form. Works well I collect all info on students. I now want 4D to mail me a message when a student registers. I believe I will need to use a 'call 4d method' for the email part, looking at page 77 of the Active 4D manual
Indirect Method Calls (aka Poor Man's method pointers)
In addition to calling 4D methods as you would within 4D, by directly
referencing the method name, you can also indirectly call a method by name
using the Call 4D method command.
The syntax of this command is as follows:
The method name may be any valid expression that returns text. This powerful
feature allows you to dynamically determine which of several methods you call,
Call 4D method(inMethodName {;inParam1 {;inParamN}})
Unfortunately I am having trouble understanding the syntax;
I have tried this
$error:=Call 4D method(my_email) `where my_email is the method to call, no additional parameters required
Active 4D generates the error 'Expecting a text expression' with the closing bracket highlighted.
Can someone let me know what i am over looking.
I am running Mac OS9.2.1 and 4D 6.8, active 4d v2.05
Thanks in advance
