[RBG7-L] - RE: Application question

[Gunnar Ekblad]

Bernard! Happy to hear that more brains works like mine (If you don’t mind like dinosaurs-minds). Even my app names are more meaningful: like boring ‘General Ledger (GL)’ �or ‘ Account Payable (AP)’ or more fun like ‘Accounts payable (AP)’.   But again originally issue was can you do this in RBA? I �think Yes but cant explain how, but my memory goes back to some previous discussion between Razzak Blocker !?     Gunnar Ekblad   -----Original Message----- From: rbg7-l@rbase.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bernard Lis Sent: den 29 december 2004 18:20 To: RBG7-L Mailing List Subject: [RBG7-L] - RE: Application question   I'm with you Gunnar.  My form menu is a separate database from the application. In my form database, each action is a custom eep that merely sets a variable (I use set var runvar = 10) I then closewindow, return. My macro disconnects from form database, connects app. and using case statements: case 10   run app10  (actually my app names are more meaningful)   break etc.   Bernie Lis ----- Original Message ----- From: Gunnar Ekblad To: RBG7-L Mailing List Sent: Wednesday, December 29, 2004 11:24 AM Subject: [RBG7-L] - RE: Application question   Dick A long time ago I had the same issue. That�s why I stopped using RBA in favour of a form driven menu that acts on Exit variables closing the form and return to my startup file opening and closing databases at my will. On the other hand if I recall correctly Razzak has previously explained how that can be done! So hang in there if you want to stay in RBA I believe you can but my preference is still not to use RBA   Gunnar Ekblad   -----Original Message----- From: rbg7-l@rbase.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dick Fey Sent: den 29 december 2004 16:43 To: RBG7-L Mailing List Subject: [RBG7-L] - Application question   Before I waste any more time on this...   Am I correct that if you are running an RBA application   You can NOT disconnect and connect to any other database, then return as you could in 6.5++   I switch db;s to look at archived data.  If I run the file outside the app, it runs perfectly, but inside the app it gives me an illegal command in eep error.   Dick Fey
