Setting up IDO methods

This example shows the steps to set up an IDO method that runs using TaskMan from a form:

  1. Set up a task definition on the Background Task Definition form:
    Task Name
    Provide the name of the IDO method.
    Executable Name
    Provide the name of the IDO method to be run. Use this format: IDO.method.
    Executable Type
    Select IDOMTH.
  2. In the form from which you want to run the IDO method, set up a component that has a form event whose task parameters match the IDO method’s parameters. You can pass bare values, for example, MyParameter1,MyParameter2.
    Note: The application does not allow you to use ~LIT~ syntax as part of a value. If white spaces are significant, use the keywords such as P(...), V(...), C(...), and FPC(...), FV(...), or FC(...).
  3. Save the event and the form.
