EasyBuilder8000 applications and projects, so many, so few hours in the day. This week I received a call for some unusual applications assistance. The customer wanted to pop up a window (no big deal). Have the operator press a button to close the window (still no biggie). But, before the window closes to display a message for a few seconds. My mind was racing through all of the possibilities of a complex Macro. How could I explain that one over the phone!
Then my mind came up with a "simpler is better" solution.
I explained the solution to the customer... he tried it... and it worked! So I decided to make a sample project of my own. (Created with V3.45) It shows how to do this with Direct and Indirect Window objects. I have not found a way to make it happen with Function key Pop-ups. I posted it so you can get some ideas of your own about creating delays in your own projects.
You can get the project from my website. Delayed close for pop-up windows
Read the Project Description for details about how it works.
