Hi everyone,
I am creating File or Database management system for my project using macro, so i need to secure my my .ism datas.
I would like to know whether is there any option to Lock .ism files.
And also I woluld like to know there is any option to automatically update macros while working. ie. I have a macro which would create new .ism files and run the same. But while a macro is running the newly created macro by a macro does not have any effect. Later we have to manually update.
Thanks,
Vaduga.
Hi Vaduga,
Not sure what you mean by "locking the .ism file", but you can protect a single macro
from being deleted or overwritten like this:
MACRO necessary PROTECTED
#this macro can not be deleted using
#the menu command "Delete macro"
END MACRO
There is also the possibility to disable "Delete macro" from the menu
completely on the macro preference tab.
The macro command
DEBUG RESET
will reload all ism files but it also terminates your current macro
execution and disposes all variables.
Cheers,
Benno
Does anyone know of a way to reload the macro .ism files and continue executing the current macro? Like a DEBUG RESET that does not terminate.
Hello!
You may also use the following useful features of Arbortext IsoDraw (in main menu select "Edit" -> "Preferences" then scroll down to):
1. "Security" tab.
2. "Administrator" tab (last in list).
