Connect Commands and Integration

Previous  Home topic  Next  Print this topic Send Feedback

The Connect and Connect and Search commands under the Integration Commands section can be used to call a connection from the form. Connections allow you to insert data and select or update data using send and/or receive parameters. Connections can be used for:

 

Background lookups
Popup lookups
Creating a new instance of a different form and passing data into that new instance
Updating data in an existing instance of a different form
Writing to database tables
Calling stored procedures
Passing data from the form to a Web Service

 

Before you can drop in a Connect command and configure it, you must first set up a connection and a connection action. The exception to this rule is with the System Meta Data connection. For more information on this type of connection see the System Meta Data Connection topic. For more information on setting up connections and using them in your forms, see the Calling the Connection from a Form topic.
