To monitor the activity of the users I use a script with the name busobj.spt.
I can use 4 events OnStart, OnQuit, OnBeforeRefreshDocument, OnAfterRefreshDocument.
But when I create a new report and hit run then it don’t use the OnAfterRefreshDocument.
Thats because I don’t hit the refresh button, is there a solution for this.
Thanks

That is because you didn’t “refresh” the document, you “ran” the document. It’s not the same thing. There are a couple of other loopholes in this even as well. I don’t remember exactly, but I think if you open the data manager and click on “Refresh” on that window, the event does not fire then either.
If I am correct in that, I think it is because on that window you are refreshing the data provider, not the document.
FWIW: You may not want to spend a lot of time working on this, as the event model has totally changed in v5. None of these same events are available, so any code you write will have to be totally redone.

Dave,
You say that the event model has changed for 5.0. Do you know what events are
trapped in V5.0? Is it possible to trap NEW reports and RUNning (as opposed to REFRESHing) a report?
I also have a need to record values entered against a PROMPT. Do you know if that is possible?

I have not had time to review the new event model yet. I do know that the OnBeforeRefreshDocument event is gone. There was some discussion on this a while back, but I have not managed to find time to follow up on it.
I also have a need to record values entered against a PROMPT. Do you know if that is possible?
Yes, you can pull in values from a prompt. I don’t have the exact syntax at hand, but I’m sure that you can do that.
The documentation (help file) that I have for 5.0 is not complete. I have found missing image links, broken help links, missing information, and assorted other frustrations.
