VB Script shall executed for named data source in case of "On Value Changed"

Dear community,

 

I have the following use case:

 

I have a form 1 with one text input box. Furthermore I have a named data source called „SCANNED_INPUT“ where the read data matrix code is written to.

 

Furthermore I have the following named data sources:

ART, ART_01, ART_02, REF, REF_01, REF_02

 

After the data matrix code is read and written to „SCANNED_INPUT“, I want that the following script is executed immediately:

 

Dim dataMatrixCodeParts

dataMatrixCodeParts = Split(Value, "|")

 

if UBound(dataMatrixCodeParts) >= 0 Then

    Format.NamedSubStrings("REF").Value = dataMatrixCodeParts(0)

    Format.NamedSubStrings("REF_1").Value = Format.NamedSubStrings("REF").Value

    Format.NamedSubStrings("REF_2").Value = Format.NamedSubStrings("REF").Value

end if

 

if UBound(dataMatrixCodeParts) >= 1 Then

   Format.NamedSubStrings("ART").Value = dataMatrixCodeParts(1)

    Format.NamedSubStrings("ART_01").Value = Format.NamedSubStrings("ART").Value

    Format.NamedSubStrings("ART_02").Value = Format.NamedSubStrings("ART").Value

end if

 

Based on the values of ART_01, ART_02, REF_01 and REF_02 two subsequent forms 01 or 02 shall be shown and the values of the named data sources shall filled within the text input boxes.

 

My issue is that I don´t get the code on the right place with the functionality that the code is executed each time the named data source „SCANNED_INPUT“ changes ("On Value Changed").

  There is not an option to run VB in a Data Entry Form. You can run it before or after the form
