MessageList
You can use this function for Optiva Workflows and Equations.
Purpose
Shows a message to the user in the Alert Message dialog.
Syntax
The
MessageList has two signatures:
Public Function MessageList(ByVal msg As String) As Long
Public Function MessageList(ByVal msg As String, ByVal ParamArray params() As String)
As Long
The second method concatenates the text from the
'params' argument. The concatenation does not contain
any spaces or separators. That text is appended to the
'msg' value. It then forwards the call to the first
method.
Description
MessageList shows a message to the current user. The
message can be opened automatically by inserting the statement in a workflow
event such as
START. Or, it can be button-prompted by inserting the
statement into a buttoned event. You can also use
MessageList functions during configuration as a
diagnostic tool.
Example 1
MessageList("The Approve event completed successfully.")
Example 2
This example outputs the list of arguments (i.e.,
Argument 1Argument 2Argument N) to the user. Note the
lack of space between the argument values.
Dim MsgArgs() As String = New String() {"Argument 1", "Argument 2", "Argument N"}
MessageList("The list of arguments: ", MsgArgs)
Workflow examples
In this example, the message is entered into the
REJECT event. When the user clicks
, the workflow is
cancelled and the user is notified.
MessageList("You have selected the Reject button. This workflow is
cancelled.")
Return 9111
Include information that is assigned to the local variables in the
alert message. This example shows the
oStatus
of the object of the
workflow in the alert message box.
Dim oStatus As Object = ObjProperty("STATUSIND.STATUS")
MessageList("The status is: ",oStatus)
