sorry I couldn't think of it at the time 'enhanced basic+' - I notice all your new examples have now used this. ssp is HTTP_funeralvaluables_Services i have done this but not sure if it is foolproof or recommended. TransNo='' if index(RemainingU…

Great, thank you Aaron

Don, Do you know any more about Service-O-matic, it loads as a 15 day trial but when you go to attempt to purchase it says not able to be purchased and the developer site link does'nt work.
-
Don, Thank you so much for your informative and comprehensive response. I would be looking at the RESTful approach. This helps me a lot in affirmation of my thinking.

Window 1 and window 2 are different 'collector' windows. Window 1 'releases' a record that then shows up on window 2s record list. Other uses can have window 2 open, and they do get updated.

...also there is now no more 'crashes'
-
....it is the 'onmessage' that is not getting received on the 1 menu setup.
-
All working well. But(there is always a but) Not sure if this is supposed to work like this, or it is just the "nature of the beast". Senario: The MDI menu has a srpdirectconnect on it with an ole event that does an post_event omnievent on 'onmes…

I can get it to crash after a number of broadcast messages in the one session from a screen that also has the srpdirectconnect on it. Maybe I have found a bug. I am going to remove and do Aarons method. btw: this is how I setup the ole control. Is…
-
Aaaron, Thank you, that gives me a starting point and method verification. Thanks heaps.
-
Aaron. The srpdirectconnect on the MENU is the one doing the 'broadcast' the others are just 'listening' Each window would send to the menu a broadcast rest for it's own ID , not 6 times with the same ID, and anyway it would be only when user saved…
-
OK, I hope you are ready for this. I got the event viewer application logs sent to me by the support IT people. So I thought I would make it crash to compare logs. Opened both menus , saved changes quite a few times, NO CRASH. What change had I made…

I will work on putting a document to-gether with screen shots and code samples so you can check what I am doing. I have gone over my explanation and it worries me somewhat that you don't understand which sort of leads me to believe I am doing it wro…

>>OK we have now narrowed it down (I also had crashed under this situation) I did tell them not to do it, but they saw it as a quick way to test!! I am going to get their enginers to get what they can and send to microsoft to be analsed, or …

The routine I have written is called from the FUNERALS table mfs. The routine does a Send_Message(MAINMENU:".OLE_DIRECTCONNECT", "OLE.Broadcast", Message) the srpdiectconnects on the forms have tis in the commuter ole event: OLE: begin case case …

OK we have now narrowed it down (I also had crashed under this situation), I really hope I can explain this. There is a shortcut that opens MAINMENU there is another shortcut that opens MORTUARY_MENU, both menus have srpdirectconnect. If you open bo…

But I need the window (matching the key loaded), to do internal processing like refreshing the data and highliting changes, which is why it just seemed so easy the have srpdicrectconnect on the scree. Gets message, Oh am I funerals_ety, yes I am, Ok…
-
But then you need to find all the open forms to to see if any of them match your target form 'update'. Can you then do a send_event'CALCULATE" to a form, outside of that form. Is this sounding right
-
I could try removing it, I dont think the 'datafield' update live, is a big deal.
-
Multi user application. A change can be made on another screen is a seperate system, same OI, that affects the data being viewd on this screen.
-
All the screens that are opened can receive a message and update the data on the screen. Why, is there another way to do it. How does the screen know to receive a message and process it if srpdirectconnect is not on that screen. Sounds like I have m…

....as start_mdichild

FUNERALS_ETY is opened from MAINMENU
-
The MAINMENU has a SRP DirectControl control Form FUNERALS_ETY has SRP DirectControl control of which mutiple copies of that form can be opened.
-
No. The 1 form that isopened (can be multiple times) have the direct connect control as well as the MAINMENU. Sorry I am not explaining well.
-
Because they are the same form, each form opened will have a ole control with SRP.DirectConnect.1 on it.
-
menu option opens a form for data enquiry/entry they can then open the same form again for a different ID and therefore have the same form open twice or as many copies as they like.
-
...and yes

Yes I did, yesterday.

Thank you. and thanks again for your quick response.
