Greetings,
The syntax below is correct, assuming of course you were setting this = to a
variable:
Myvar= Smart("T|1|4|1|4").View
If you are getting an automation error on this, that is because you have to
have a "running connect" - I have no other way to describe what I mean here
other than by example:
Running
Sub thisWillError
Myvar= Smart("T|1|4|1|4").View
End sub
Will error
Running
Sub thisWillNotError
Connect "MyApp",stWindows
Myvar= Smart("T|1|4|1|4").View
End sub
Will not.
It is possible that the view is not able to return data from the component.
The syntax above will cause the Smart object to be a pointer to the
component. So you could, after executing the view command ,see if it really
"got to where you wanted" by printing out properties of the Smart object:
?Smart.Class - this will tell you what you are looking at - if this doesn't
return anything, this means the sequence is bad.
?smart.Value - this is what the View command is supposed to return
?Smart.Description - Sometimes this has data and value does not
?Smart.Name - Sometimes this has data and value does not

Subject: [Talk] Smart Sequences
Has anyone used the SMART sequences within a script yet? Can you reply with
a code snippet? I cannot get the script to run correctly with the syntax
below:
Smart("T|1|4|1|4").View
Thanks,
