ca va bien? :-)
Hello everybody!
Fine today?
I want to create a popup menu with all the users of my application.
All the settings for this users are in separate files (.edb) (one for each
user) in a folder (Users).
Where may I find how to do that?
if i understand you correctly you have the names of your users in theat menu a la:
(See the P.S. below ;-)
John Doe Jane Doe Jim Bo ...
And you need a script that will read in the prefs-file for that user?
Then try this in the script of that menu-button:
on menupick quoi ### "quoi" will now hold the selected name of your user
put url("file:Users/" & quoi & ".edb") into my_userprefs
## will put the appropriate file into the var "my_userprefs"
## after creatin gthe string the engine will see somthing like:
## put url"file:Users/John Doe.edb" and will read in the correct file...
## do your prefs-stuff here end menupick
Hope that helps...
Or maybe one of the nice members of our list?:-) Thank you
De rien... :-)
Friendly Fran�ois

P.S.
Sorry, its definitively tooooo hot (33 C� here in germany, mon dieu...)
I read the subject and i think my hint was not the correct one for your problem... :-(
But here is how to do THAT ;-)
on xxx ## maybe openstack, opencard or preopen...
put the directory into olddir ## always a good idea to store the current folder and ## RE-store it afterwards... ;-)
set the directory to "Users"
put the files into foo
repeat for each line l in foo
if char -4 to -1 of foo = ".edb" then ## valid user prefs-files
put char 1 to -5 of foo & CR after foo_too
end if
end repeat
## will create a list of all the "valid" filenames in the folder without
### the suffix .edb
delete char -1 of foo_too ## get rid of last CR
put foo_too into btn "name of menubutton here" ## now fill the menu-button (its just text ;-)
set the directory to olddir ## restore old directoy end xxx
NOW you can use my first script :-)
Have a lazy sunday and don't move unecessarily ;-)
