Hi, Looking for some direction please. I have been given a template of a standard letter. On the letter are a number of fields which I will need to populate from our customer table (i..e name, address, ref no etc). The generated document will then print (will be a number of customers in each...

rusguy, thanks again for the response. After a couple of days of pulling my hair out, I finally got hold of someone in Progress Support who could help. Turns out the problem is that Progress does not currently support mutual authentication when making a web service call from the 4GL. They had...

Cheers rusguy. I think I have ruled out most of these issues as I've managed to connect and invoke a method on the web service by using a utility called SOAPbox from the same PC so that would seem to rule out any firewall/cert issues. Query seems to be going out but no response seems to be...

Cheers for the util DwinTX. rusguy.. basically trying to acess a third party webservice over SSL. New to all this so feeling my way.. Got it working via a util called SoapBox so I have confirmed that the web service is functioning ok. When I try and access the service from Progress, I can...

Hi, Just found out that the Progress SOAP viewer will not work for https. Anyone know of any way I can listen for messages with https? Thanks in advance, Paul

I can do this alright.. So for example, hWebService:CONNECT("-WSDL 'c:\temp\thirdPartyService.wsdl'"). but (and pardon my ignorance here).. should I not have the URL of the host server somewhere?

Hi, I am currently working on interfacing with a web service from a third party. They have informed me that their policy for security reasons is that the WSDL file is not part of the URL. They have emailed me the WSDL file so I can generate the documentation using bprowsdldoc. The web...

Hi, bprowsdldoc is throwing some strange errors which I haven't seen before. WSDL URL is: https://qas.bordbia.ie/Beef/CheckHerdStatus.asmx?WSDL Error being generated is: Error message: 9318 Error message: 9407 Error loading WSDL document https://qas.bordbia.ie/Beef/CheckHerdStatus.asmx?WSDL...

Hi, I am developing an touchscreen-based application which will consist of several images on which I wish to place hotspots of varying shapes and sizes. Had anyone suggestions for an Image-map OCX that works with Progress. I recall seeing one some years ago but can't locate it on t'internet...

RKR, Thanks for that - outputting to a CSV file and importing is something I tend to do myself if I am querying the system but the users want the facility to export the contents of any browse to Excel hence the use of OLE..

Hi all, I have been asked to develop some reports - basically trend analyis for sales etc. over a number of years (Graphs, Charts etc). Doing some initial tests and am looking at exporting the data to Excel via OLE. What I am finding is that I can generate the data pretty quicky, the delay...

Hi all, Our company has a number of locations which each have their own database locally. HQ have asked me to develop a report which is basically a consolidation of information held in each factory database (e.g. overview of price trends). Each factory has an appserver I can connect to so...

Hi all, Just a quick query here. We have an system running on one site which consists of some apps that run on the factory floor and then some more that run in the office. We are nearing our license limit and occassionally find that people are signed in on multiple sessions (for various...

A bit confused after reading all that. Basically, I'd be looking to purchase a development license to develop some client-specific products. Having developed the product, I would then need to buy some licenses from Progress (maybe my client could do this directly?) for deployment of the...

tamhas, Many thanks for your reply. Is it possible simply to phone up Progress and order these licenses or do you need to jump through hoops etc? Having bought a license, is it then possible to purchase licenses for deployment to clients? Paul
