display information at html Status Bar

I am working with a com add-in. I created a custom button which allow user to enter information and then save to database. After it is saved, I would like to display that information in Status Bar. I have created the html page to display the data. It works fine when pos is first loaded.

Now the problem is: how to refresh the data after user enter information? Is something like fireevent I can use for this?

Another problem, when the form pop up, how to make sure it is always focused? That is, user can not click pos while the form stays open?

Many thanks

Hi Leanne,

You can have the status page call a refresh function every certain amount of seconds -- the default RMS status screen does this through Window.SetInterval(...).

To keep the form focused in c#/vb.net call form.ShowDialog(), in VB try form.Show vbModal

Thanks Evan. I have a temporary variable which I stored at Sessionclass.Variable(1) and I would like to refresh that as well. Window.SetInterval() doesn't work for that. any more suggestions?

Leanne,

Once you have a QSRules object (see RMS default), you can get/set the session variable via QSRules.Session.Variable(1).
