How to make a informative window appear

spiky_golden

Hi, I'm really new with NAV and I need to make an informative window open when a processing only report is start and close the window when it's done... I can't figure out how to do this...

The Pop-up will tell the user the process is start and when it's done.
Any link to a reference or code example are welcome!

Hi, here a little example:

Variables
Name	DataType	Subtype	Length
Window	Dialog		

YOURDATAITEM - OnPreDataItem()
...
...
Window.open('Processing #1#######'); //opens a Dialog Window #1##### is a wildcard, here wildcard one
...
...

YOURDATAITEM - OnAfterGetRecord()
...
...
Window.update(1,SomeValue); //we update Wildcard 1, so the user see, that the report is running
...
...


Report - OnPostReport()
Window.close(); // we close the window

For more infos, go to C/AL Symbol menu, go to the variable window and press there the button F1. In the help is also an example
