RE: [Talk] Converting to 6.5

Title: Converting to 6.5

If this is Meditech Magic the use would be Key "{Ctrl}" which is interpreted as Key chr(1) by the Remote WorkStation.  It should work equally well in versions 6.0 and 6.5.   There shouldn't be any conversion issues with moving from 6.0 to 6.5 since the underlying DLLs are the same.  If you want to use the new VBA environment in 6.5, then VBA has some small differences in its script language, and some large differences in its user interface.  Unless you've spent a great deal of time fiddling with forms in your VB6 script project, you shouldn't have many issues with moving from 6.0 to 6.5.   The basic step in the conversion to VBA is importing your Script.bas file.  Then, you simply run the subroutine that starts your script.  The small difference between VB6 and VBA is that VBA doesn't have App object, as in App.Path (instead use CurDir), or Printer object.  These may require small changes in your script.  VBA uses an "advanced" version the Form object which basically requires rewriting the entire Form module nearly from scratch.  If you've made extensive changes to the forms in your project, this will require a some rework.   Rich McNeil Boston Software Systems 866 653 5105 www.bostonworkstation.com     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mickey Sherbett Sent: Tuesday, February 17, 2004 5:29 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Talk] Converting to 6.5 I think we talk before about the Key “CTRL”.   I have not mastered 6.5 yet so I was working with another user working in 6.0. It seems that Key “CTRL” does not work under 6.0.  Any ideas?   Next,    Maybe I am not reading the 6.5 Documentation right, but what are the steps in converting a 6.0  Script to 6.5? I am having a problem understanding the steps involved in either creating a new script or copying a 6.0 VB project to 6.5?     Thanks, Mickey Sherbett, Senior Analyst DCH Regional Medical Center                809 University Blvd. E.
