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 Background Task Definition record:
    Task Name
    Specify the name of the IDO method.
    Executable Name
    Specify the executable name using the format: IDO.method.
    Executable Type
    Select IDOMTH.
  2. In a form, set up an event whose task parameters match the IDO method’s parameters. You can pass bare values, for example, MyParameter1,MyParameter2.
    Note: Your application will 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 form and event.
