Question (How smart are you?)
Can you tell me what is going on here? If so, send your answer to
I have a PB (packet burst) App that acts as a driver that determines which
task, of 4, to perform, based on the result of a calculation on a
combination of flags and date.
Here is an example of 1 of these tasks: the above mentioned PB App uses API
calls (ShellExecute) on a VB App that populates an MDB from extractions of
SC0982AC and TDATA.
After launching the VB App, the PB App sends MAPI Messages dynamically to
designated recipients, using the NVO_MAPI Class that I created (to be used
in PB or VB).
The MAPI message contains an Attachment File that is a Hyperlink to another
VB App that is used to maintain the above mentioned MDB. Clicking the
Hyperlink launches the VB App and the user is maintaining the data.
This process, up to the user receiving e-mail, is fully automated, requiring
no interaction from anyone!
I plan to enhance the maintenance App, by instantiating Internet Explorer,
and assigning the App as a property of the created object. This will give
the appearance/feel of an Inter/Intra/Extra/(insert buzzword here) "Net"
application.
