Check to see if default values were used...


Recommended Posts

Hello Autoiter,

I would like to write a script which creates users in our Business Software. Right now I am in the process of writing, but one thing that comes to my mind is that nobody should use the default or blank values. It makes no sense to create a user with the a blank value as last name. So how can I avoid this?

- check for blanks

- but only on certain fields (some can be left blank)

Thanx you

Felix

You will need to check for valid data on the fields you want to make sure that there is data for.. something like

If GUICtrlRead($Firstname) <> "First Name" Or '' Then MsgBox(0,'Valid data','Looks good enough to enter')

I was looking through the code a bit more, and your Start button and Exit button are not going to work... Try this, it's using OnEventMode

Hello Kerros,

thank you for your help. I somehow expected to have it done line-by-line. :P

As I mentioned before, the script is nowhere to be finish. But thank you for helping me with the buttons.

I am still so worried about the fact that I want to control a program that is written in 4D which doesn't seem to use ControlIDs for their windows. I am not the biggest fan of pushing keyboard buttons to create users.

I will try the code in about 2h when I will arrive at work.

Thank you again

Hello Kerros,

I used your edits on the script and it works great. Except for the Start button. To be honest I could not get it working so far. What it doesn't do is close the gui and continue with the script. Looks like this part needs to be refined a little further:

Select
         Case $msg = $Start

     EndSelect

What do you have to put in here to give the button a proper function?

thank you

Felix

When I press the Start Button from the code that I put in the above post, I get a message box with either Valid data or Invalid data. If you are getting the message box the start button is working. Are you getting the Message box?

If you are not getting the message box, make sure that the code you are working with is what I posted above.

I didn't have the GUI hide when continuing the script, to hide the GUI just place

GUISetState(@SW_HIDE)

after the message box, where the ;login comment is.

Hello Kerros,

the MessageBox works perfect. But when I try to put together a real world example out of your great MessageBox, nothing happens.

I tried a lot of approaches and always returned to your example. Right now it mostly looks like this:

I put the debug mode at the top, and also only had the message box if there was invalid data for the first name. The only thing that is being validated at this point is the first name, you would need to check the rest of the fields for valid data as well.
