General discussion

Hi, I have two small doubts that I would like to know if you could help me.
1. I was told that IDEA allows you to schedule scripts to start and run, how do you do that?
2. The second question is how to post code here? I saw that Brian posts the complete code and it is well organized in the forum. I tried to put code between ```, but it does not work.

Hi Brian,
 
Finally I have created my first pro dialog box in IDEA and that's amazing for my future projects.
I wanted to add benford law into the macros (dialog box) but i have got an error: Object variable or With block variable not set!
Please have a look at the attached pic.
Also, some tables may have less than 1000 puplulation so I will receive an error if the number of records is less than 1000 for creating suspicious.
That would be great if you let me know how to script the number of records e.g.
 

Hi everyone,

Hi everyone,
 
I am wondering if there is a way to return the time portion from a datetime character value?
I tried @Ctot function but it returns "00:00:00".
I mean it should pull "01:28:31" from "12-Apr-2021 01:28:31". I am looking for a function not macros scripts.
 
Thanks,
 

Hi everyone,
I wanted to know if we can create a project inside another project?

Hi everyone.
I cannot select the fields I want to search. All the fields are character and I type text in the "text to find" box!
Thanks,

I'm adding errorhandlers to a series of pre-existing scripts.  These scripts are for analysts with a wide variety of technical ability to use so I'm trying to keep them simple.  One thing I've been unable to find is a list of the properties IDEA makes available for an error object (.number, .description, .WhatElse?).  The two scenarios where I need more information than I have are as follows:

Hi everyone,
I wanted to know if there is any way to export my tables as Excel format (each should be in a separate sheet) into a single Excel file. Tables a, b, and c should be exported as different sheets into an Excel file named "X".
 
Thanks,
 

Hi everyone,
I have a source data (an IMD table) in a project and I am updating this data every month. Generally, I was wondering if there is a way to import the IMD file from another project to a prjoect! I know I can copy and paste into the project but I am looking for another way.
Thanks,

I just uploaded a vidoe on my YouTube channel on using User Types in IDEAScript.  Here is the link to the video and I have attached the script that I used for the demo - https://youtu.be/B56E8LYIuZM
