Message Class

Former Member — Wed, 29 Aug 2007 11:11:27 GMT

Could any one explain me the purpose / use of Field "Self-Explanat'y" in the Message Class? Seems like whether we check or uncheck this field, it makes no difference to the program?.

Thanks in advance,

Jigar

Hi,

this check box means that the message is self-explanatory. there is no need for description of the particular message.

Regards.

It makes no difference in the program (other than the extended syntax check), but makes a big difference to the user!

When a message is displayed to the user they can click on it for more detail (the single message line not usually enough to sufficiently explain the problem).

If the self-explanatory flag is set nothing will happen.

If it is not set a pop-up box appears, with the message id (it help the developer find where the message was triggered) and (if it's been entered) and fuller explanation of the problem from the message long text.

Regards,

Nick

Hi,

There is no need for description of the particular message if it is checked...Also in the program u just specify the message class and number,it will pick the corresponding description.

message e001(zsd).

it will pick the description of 001 of mesage class zsd.

hi,

You need to create a long text whenever a message short text is not adequate

You cannot create a long text for self-explanatory messages.This is the difference.

Reward points if helpful,
