Fetchit - A KMAC offering by Chris Hennings with thanks to David Wood
Requires: KMAC.APP and supportting files by David Wood
Purpose : To find a record in a .DBF file based on a highlit string
in another app. Eg: Mark a name in Agenda entry or Word
document and find that person in your address book etc.
Terms : This is source code, free for you to do with as you will. I'm
happy enough to use it on my live data but as with all these
things, you should test it on dummy or at least well backed
up files. In any case it is not warrented to be error free,
nor will any liability be accepted for any consequence of its
use.
Content : README.1ST - These installation notes
KMACADD.KMA - To be added to you base KMAC.KMA. I'm using
the F key change this as required.
FETCHIT.KMA - Prepares the .DBF for a find operation. This
should be located in the same directory as
your base KMAC.KMA. It assumes that the .DBF
to be used is LOC::M:\ADDRESS.DBF, change this
as required. It also assumes that FETCHIT.OPO
will be located in the same \KMA\ directory,
again change as required.
FETCHDBF.KMA - Opens .DBF if not already open. Locate in the
same directory as FETCHIT.KMA. Also assumes
LOC::M:\ADDRESS.DBF - change as required.
FETCHIT.OPL - OPL source which performs the find. Translate
to FETCHIT.OPO and locate in the same \KMA\
directory as FETCHIT.KMA (or wherever you've
pointed the line in FETCHIT.KMA to). Assumes
that KMACLIB.OPO will be located in the same
place.
Please feel free to amend and enhance the code here and let us know the
results.
Best Regards
Chris
