Selection Margin

Can you run some code when a user puts a check next to a document in the selection margin?

Thanks in advance

No, you cannot trigger something as soon as someone has checked a document in a view.

However, providing the user clicks a button after he has selected a few documents, yes, you can ACT on these selected documents. Is that acceptable?

The trigger has to be manual, though.

That is what I thought.

My situation is that I have a dialog that uses a form we created for assigning orders to people. On the form we have a listbox that has the list of the appropriate people who can be assigned a particular request. The problem is that we are running into certian types of orders that have to many people. This causes the famous 65K issue.

I have looked at using an embedded view but there is not any interaction between the to that is worth while. So I will just put a picklist on the form, it is an extra click but I guess that is OK.

Thanks for the response

Well, there are several ways to work around that issue…

For instance, you could use an @picklist to display the list of user you can pick from.

I beleive this one doesnt have the infamous 64K limit.

Also, an embedded view would work if you activate the selection bar in the view, and also activate the action bar. Now you can add an action that triggers your agent and act on the selected documents in this embedded view. Of course, there are limitations of other kinds, since you cannot put an embedded view anywhere; and the view it is based on must be static (select already coded).

FInally, if these people are all in the address bok, it is possible to use the [NAME] setting of the @picklist to pick directly in the N&A.

Would any of these option help?
