Action Editor

Introduction

Action Editor allowes to set up an action performed in a script.

An action means any operation, for example, "Change Field Value", "Open a Database", "Import Records", "Exit the Application", "Print Records" etc. Some actions allow specifying additional parameters (e.g. a database name for the "Open a Database" action). If the additional parameters are not specified, the application uses the default values or asks the user for additional parameters. For instance, if you do not specify the path to the database for the "Open a Database" action, the application will ask you to specify the database to be opened.

Interface

The Action Editor Window:

In this editor, you select the desired action from the list located at the top part of the window, and set its parameters (fields at the center part of the window). For example, the figure above shows the Add Record action and its parameters describing the type and destination of the record to be added. Click the ... button or in the white text box to change the parameter. Click the X button to set the default parameter values. Actions may vary in a number of parameters, and may have no parameters at all.

If the action returns its result (for example, the "Add Record" action returns 1 if the record was added successfully and 0 otherwise), a text box appears below. Use this textbox to specify the name of the variable where the action result should be saved:

If you point at the text box, a tooltip describing the returned value will appear. You can find more details about the usage of variables in the Script designer and Variables sections.

To save changes and close the editor window, click OK.

Press the Use Sript... button to go to the Script Designer that allows carrying out several actions and using conditions.
