Re: Call Mapics Browser Function within Custom Object

What you are looking for is the Client API interface for Integrator.  It 
is documented in the Integrator Help Text.  There is a sample VB program 
that displays a window for you to enter the Client API command.  The name 
of the sample is ZPublicBrowser.exe.  It should be located in the runtime 
directory.

If this does what you want, we have another sample that can run without 
the entry screen.  This sample has the command passed in as a parm and 
bypass the entry dialog.  This allows a program action to be created on 
one object that can call an API for another object using substitution 
variables in the command.  If you are interested we can send you a copy.

Hope this helps.

        Subject:        Call Mapics Browser Function within Custom Object


I need to open the Create Enterprise Item window from a custom object 
added
via Integrator.  Mapics tells me that calling these functions are written
into the code so it is not possible.  In my Integrator class we had a
program where you could copy/type in the API string and it would open the
Mapics Browser window.  I would think I could write something similar but
wondered if any of you have already done this and have a better solution.
