BO OLE and silent login....

sdk development
1

Hi,

Anyone know how I can launch B/O using OLE from my application WITHOUT getting a login box ?
We’ve got the launching bit working fine - but we want to pass the login using the @BOUSER variable thingy - can you do this or does BO bring it up as soon as you create a BO object ?

AdvTHANKSance,

Paul

Hi Paul:

If you have version 4.1.3, there are two methods. If you have an earlier release there is only one.

  • Method one:
    Rename the BOMain.Key file.
    Create an instance of BO.
    Rename the BOMain.Key file back.
    Use the LoginAs method of the application object.

  • Method two:
    Read the Technic.wri file. There is a key you can set in the registry.

I have used method one and it works fine. I have not tried method two yet, because I do not have 4.1.3
