Retrieving Rvs From A .txt

[BrianDocherty]

I have a stand alone VB application which generates a text file which updates frequently.

 

I have the data in the text file formatted as single line with the format:

 

[Download_Date]{string1}[Plat_No]{string2} ......[Car_No]{string4}

 

which I think is the required delimiting format for VG.

 

I want to read these RVs and their associated data into VG and use the data as DTMF digits in a PLAY module.

 

I have no experience of VB scripting and I have tried using Example 2 in the VB scripting help file as a template for what I need to do.

 

I am not having any luck. I have even copied the example exactly (and enter a string of numbers in the file as the $RV[ReadInPrice] to dial. BTW does the string in CurrentPrices.txt in the example need to be formatted in any way

 

 

I am using the trial version so it should Command Link capable

 

Hope you can help

Best to use VBScript module to read in the file and then use the COM command RvSet_RvList to set the RV's for that line, or just return them as part of the Run_ResultReturn call.

 

In the Example 2, just change this line:

 

vg.RvSet $RV_LINEID, "ReadInPrice", sEntireFile

 

to be:

 

vg.RvSet_RvList $RV_LINEID, sEntireFile

Thanks for the info

 

I am having a problem getting Example 2 to do anything. A couple of questions relating to this:

 

1 Which of the three

 

Continue, without waiting for VBScript to complete.

Wait until VBScript completes.

Wait until VBScript and sound file completes.

 

settings should be used with Example 2.

 

 

2 Do the contents of the text file C:\CurrentPrices.txt need to be formatted (if so Example please ?)

 

Thanks

"Wait until VBScript completes" needs to be selected.

 

The read in file must be in format like the one you mentioned already:

 

[Download_Date]{string1}[Plat_No]{string2} ......[Car_No]{string4}

 

If you still have problems post your script, the text data file, and the trace capturing the call
