Vb Script For Conditional Value In Text Field

Legacy Poster

• 5. Juni 2015 15:26

I am using Bartender Automation V 10.1 running on a Windows 7 Professional  Service Pack 1 computer.

I have a label with a field named ExpDate that is prompted for a value at the time of printing from an input box on the Data Entry Form.  This field is named ExpDateInputBox.  Without scripting the label field will print any valid date entered into the Data Entry Form (albiet in a specific format) and works well.

However, not all products have an expiration date. This expiration date (when there is one) is entered by the user.   In the case where there is no expiration date, I would like to instruct the user to enter "N/A" and a VB script would modify the value of ExpDate based on the input value of ExpDateInputBox in the data entry form.  I have looked at many examples here and have come up with what I think would work.

I have entered this script into the Transforms/VB Script section of the ExpDate object using the On ProcessData.

 

If Format.Objects("ExpDateInputBox").Value = "N/A" Then

    Format.Objects("ExpDate").Value = "N/A"

Else

    Format.Objects("ExpDate").Value = Format.Objects("ExpDateInputBox").Value

End if

 

When I try to save the script i get an error message #6900 stating "<Line 7: :Operation not supported for this object type.>"

 

I am sure that I am close but cannot figure out what is else is needed.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Gary

  Make your data type a Multi-Line VB script rather than putting it in transforms.

   

  Get rid of " Format.Objects("ExpDate").Value = " and replace it with just "Value ="
