RE: [Talk] Various Notes

[Ross Stolle]

Rich,             This enhancement is VERY nice.  I’ve been using BWS with Excel files for quite a while now, but it’s never been as easy as it is with Datastation.  What used to take about 20 lines of code to open the Excel file and identify all the columns is now done is one easy line of code.  Nice addition!   Ross Stolle Integration Engineer Avera McKennan Hospital Sioux Falls, SD       -----Original Message----- From: Rich McNeil [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 04 December, 2003 10:12 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Talk] Various Notes   A few note:   1.       We’ve released Boston DataStation whose goal is to make file handling in a script as simple as it theoretically can be.  A few lines of script can replace several hundred lines of VB code.  It’s included in the current release of Boston WorkStation and it’s a really sweet concept. 2.       Boston Software is now a McKesson Business Partner providing the WorkStation to four of its groups.  We recently attended their Insight convention. 3.       A nuance in a developing scripts for Windows applications…only one script can connect to a given application at a time.  This means that the WorkStation Application Viewer (which is just a glorified script) cannot be connected to a Windows application while your script is connected.  This is not an ideal situation, but you can get information on the connection from your script in VBA’s immediate window…?R.Window will give you the current window (as in [EMAIL PROTECTED],x), ?R.hWnd is the window’s handle, ?View is it’s contents (you may need to be more specific about the view’s b:=classname).   Rich McNeil Boston Software Systems 866 653 5105 www.bostonworkstation.com     ____________________ Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
