Saleslogix LAN developers reference V7.5.1

[dmaddison]

Is there a developers reference manual available online for 7.5.1? I used to have one for V6.x but we upgraded last year.

I've looked on this site and on the UK site (support.sage.co.uk)

It is available on the SalesLogix support site:

   Support.SalesLogix.Com.

HI Thanks for the reply,

I don't have a login for that site (and there seems to be no way to register), I'm going to contact our third party supplier to see if they can provide me with a login ID.

At the moment all I am looking for is the definition of the 'Asc' function, it's in an old vb script manual I have found, returns the ASCII code when passed a character. Using it the the following code in the standard 'Contract' Form...

For intCharPosition = 1 to 9
        If (intCharPosition = 1 or intCharPosition = 2) Then
            If (Asc(Mid(txtReferenceNo.Text, intCharPosition,1)) < 65 Or Asc(Mid(txtReferenceNo.Text, intCharPosition,1)) > 90)Then
                blnValidFormat = False
            End If
        Else
           If Asc(Mid(txtReferenceNo.Text, intCharPosition,1)) < 48 Or Asc(Mid(txtReferenceNo.Text, intCharPosition,1)) > 57 Then
                blnValidFormat = False
            End If
        End If

Next

Getting an error:-

Invalid procedure call or argument: 'Asc'

Thanks

Someone in your company should have a login.

The asc is just a normal vbscript function. You can get info here:

and I suggest you get Microsoft's VBscript help file. It's what we all use.

Thanks for the link.

Got the code working; it seems that Saleslogix doesn't like nested function calls in 'If' statements, assigned

'Mid(txtReferenceNo.Text, intCharPosition,1)' to a temp variable and then checked that in 'Asc' and it works fine....
