==== Update_Index message (OpenInsight 64-bit) ====

I have a timer event on the create event in the main MDI frame checking for web orders. The timer routine includes Update_Index("WEB_PO_ORDERS", "STATUS", ''). In OI10 this displays a flashing message in the middle of the MDI frame. When being displayed it gets focus therefore losing focus (Therefore control) of the OI 10.0.8 Start window and putting control back to the MDI frame.

Is there a way of suppressing the Update_Index message.



Any advice would be grateful.

Update_Index("WEB_PO_ORDERS", "STATUS", '',1)



Cant see where it is documented (or Update_Index for that matter) , but I asked and was told some time back.



Also, if you type update_index ypu see the param hints and param 4 is 'suppressMsg_flag

Makes you wonder what other undocumented features we are missing.

All the time (Arev & OI9). Especially when you see AMcC posts.
