Hi,
I did an evaluation a few years ago of diadem and got as far as modifying the example vb script to query our mysql database and insert data into the portal. But at the time management decided to maintain an internal query solution that already existed. But my current manager is now open to re-investigating diadem. So I actually added the full license to our VLM about 6 months ago (version 2012) and an just now getting back to where I left off. I did save the script in our source code control tree and it actually still works. I can run it and it populates a couple trees of data from our database, using some hard coded values for the query string in the script.
I had an email thread going with Brad Turpin, who I notice still frequents this forum, but that thread is long gone, I've changed laptops and it doesn't seem to be in my archive. I remember where I left off was I was at the point of wanting to make some prompts for the user to choose which device he/she wants data for, and then from there query and make report.
Being a newb to VB, but not to programming in general, what is a good resource to tell me how you get data to/from a vb dialog? I see there is a tool in the script environment to design a dialog, just not sure where to start. Thanks
