hi,

what is the proper way to do autonumbering in LN? i try to use the first free number but no clue how to make it work correctly. any advice appreciated, thanks

What you want from autonumbering, can you give the detail please.

Use this function:

tcmcs.dll0050.read.default.number(
ref domain tcorno orno.tcmcs.dll0050,
domain tcnrgr nrgr.tcmcs.dll0050,
domain tcmcs.byte maxl.tcmcs.dll0050,
ref domain tcmcs.s132m mess.tcmcs.dll0050)
{
DllUsage
Expl : This function gets the order number using the free number
defined in the given number group.
Pre : NA
Post : NA
Input : orno.tcmcs.dll0050 -> serie that must be used.
nrgr.tcmcs.dll0050 -> number group
maxl.tcmcs.dll0050 -> max. length of series.
Output : orno.tcmcs.dll0050 -> order number
mess.tcmcs,dll0050 -> error message if number generation is
not proper or when series is not found
EndDllUsage


:)

thanks ralph , do you have any sample usage for this function?
