The action type scripts within Isah are being used for document actions. This requires the user to have sufficient rights so the user only views documents that are intended for him. There are several possible actions:

• Modify (Open)
• Read (View)
• Print (Print)

In the Basic data documents folder document types can be created to which an action type script can be linked. Linking a type to a document also immediately establishes which action type scripts apply to the document.

The scripts for opening, viewing or printing a document must meet certain conditions. In order for the script to run through the Document Link, the script code must contain a function with a fixed name and input parameters.

• Change
  • Function name DocLinkOpen
  • Parameters DocId and DocPathName
• Read
  • Function name DocLinkView
  • Parameters DocId and DocPathName
• Print
  • Function name DocLinkPrint
  • Parameters DocId and DocPathName

Sample Code

The code below is an example of opening a document with a script from Isah.

Sub DocLinkOpen(DocId, DocPathName)

Dim ShellObj

‘’ Check whether a file name is valid.

if DocPathName = "" then

MsgBox "No file name entered", vbOKOnly+vbCritical,, ”Documents"

Exit Sub

end if

Set ShellObj = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

ShellObj.Run """" & DocPathName & """"

Set ShellObj = Nothing

End Sub
