IDEAScript Questions

Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to create a variable that is very general:
for example "Dim a as an integer" with a=any integer or a range of integer.
I would like to do that because I have some field names whose name are pratically the same, only the number at the end change:
"SEGMENT1"
"SEGMENT12"
"SEGMENT13"
I would to know if it is possible to have a variable that can store any integer and have something like:
"SEGMENT"&a
Thanks in advance for the help :)

Hi,
I have 5 joins to make, I put a picture to show what I mean. I would like to use the client.uniqueFileName for the name of each database after each join.
I manage to use  the client.uniquefileName for the two first join by using the method "calling a sub-routine" but I can not add the 3rd, 4th and 5th join.
I do not manage to pass the filename from the 2nd function to the 3rd function.
I can not upload my scripts, they are in .ism :(
Thanks in advance for the suggestions :)
 

Hi,
I have to hide a column which is used for internal calculations. This column will be created from code and should not be visible to user by default.
I am using TableManagementLib.TableManagement to append field. I don't see any attribute in COMDBLib.Field interface for setting visible property.
Is there any work around for this?
Thanks,
Shafeer
 

Hi Brian
I was trying to perform from an Idea script some manipulations on excel cells. most of the manipulations works fine, but I could not find the equivalent to the folloing VB line:
 ActiveSheet.Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select
this line select one row of excel cells from the current active cell to the rightmost non empty cell.
Naturally I tried the following, but it yield an error:
Set ex = CreateObject("Excel.Application")

Hi
Can anyone help me understand how to perform a many join?
I.e. a primary record in the resulting table for each record in the secondary table?
This is best explained in the pictures below.
Thanks

I stored field names in a array and tried to pass array as a parameter to a function but Idea threw an error.
sub main
      Dim fieldname(2) as String
      fieldname(0) = "Acct_num"
      fieldname(1) = "Acct_Desc"
      fieldname(2) = "JE_num"
       PrintArray(fieldname)
end sub
Function  PrintArray(Arrayname() as String) 
     for i = 0 to ubound(Arrayname)

Hello -
I am new to IDEA, and was hoping someone could assist me.  I have files in a similar format as below.  What I need to do is take the median of Amt1 - Amt5 for each value in the Text column.  I created the median field using the excel function and was hoping I would be able to do the same in IDEA.
I've been able to compute the median for individual columns, but have not yet figured out a way to do it across a row.
Thank you in advance.
 

Hi Brian,
I am implementing CaseWare Monitor and that will be used to run my scripts and manage the subsequent exceptions. To do this, I can't have any message boxes pop up through the script, including error messages, as CaseWare Monitor will just hang waiting for the user to press OK.

Does anybody have an IDEAscript to run a macro?
