Greetings all: I am using VBScript to pre-populate a few fields of a point shapefile whether they are new, or edited By a user. I have an edit form and one page with two fields (trying to keep it simple while I get it working). Using the onload event of the edit form, I'm adding this VB: Dim objNetwork Dim userName Dim MyDate Set objNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network") userName = objNetwork.UserName MyDate = Now() ThisEvent.Object.pages("PAGE1").controls("USER").Value = userName ThisEvent.Object.pages("PAGE1").controls("DATE").Value = MyDate This populates the USER box with the user's login name, (works great). But it does not populate the DATE field with anything Infact i get an "Object not Defined" error for that line 8. if I swap the last two lines the DATE field gets populated but the USER field does not. This leads me to assume it must be some limitation with the VB that cannot populate two boxes on the same event....? So, I tried putting similar code onto the PAGE1 'onload' event but could not figure out the call. In fact I tried to make it very simple and just pre-populate the field with a fake user name text string: ThisEvent.Object.controls("USER").Value = "Frank" None of them work, no error just doesn't work. I'm at a loss. Arcpad's help documentation is for 10.0 and doesn't really help put the pieces together anyway. ... View more
