Navision and MS-Agent (e.g. 'Genie')

sdv

Hello,

Is there anybody that has experience with implementing MS-Agent in Navision Financials using the Automation server.

I am halfway there (I can connect to the MS-Agent Server) but I keep getting error messages (from Navision) when I try to access the Ms-Agent character.

I would be very happy with an example.

With regards,

Charl van der Mooren

Excuse my ignorance ... but what is MS-Agent?

I have automated Peedy in Navision. If you want specific help, I have a program that will read a MS-Agent and display a list of keywords. Once you have the keywords the automation is easy.

steve,

PLease post your agent tool and navision code in the download area so we all can build further from your solution.

Thanx,

Here is the code you need to use MS-Agent in Navision Financials. Very important is that you use an english/u.s. windows version or else the speechengine won't work. Maybe in time I'll be able to find out how I can solve that problem.

The ms-agent files and drivers are available at www.microsoft.com/msagent.

Have fun with it !!

Server.Characters.Load('Peedy','c:\windows\msagent\chars\peedy.acs');
Server.Characters.Item('Peedy').Show;
Server.Characters.Item('Peedy').MoveTo(500,400);
Peedy := Server.Characters.Item('Peedy');
Peedy.Speak('What do you want me to say?');
Peedy.Hide;
