Hi,

Can anyone give me an example of how to use a BOI dll function in a standard Baan script?

Any DLL function of any BOI would do.

I want to import several things into Baan that come into ASCII files (and, for obvious reasons, XCH is not usable),
but do not have experience using BOI's.

I know this must be simple...after you know.

Thanks a lot

Fred

Hi,
If you see BOI dll, they use a new concept in baan called as 'Container' which are like structures in C, in order to exchange data between applications.
so if u want to use BOI dll in your external applications, then you should take care of creation of this containers.
When you create a container, this will give you unique id and then you should pass this unique id to BOI dll.
I would say u open the BOI dll and then you will be able to find its working and then u can use it in your program script.

Thanks for your tip.

Anyway, the problem is just that.

I want to use the dll's internally in Baan. How can I call a function in a BOI DLL from inside a Baan script?

I saw the BOI dll scripts and found that new structure concept. I need an example of how to call a function (and using the respective structure).

I know this must be very simple but, I have no experience with this functionality.

Can you (or anyone) help?


Thanks a lot

Fred
