Error when selecting file from common dialog box using RTC

imclever1205

Hello guys,

I am having problems in selecting an XML file from a Common dialog box in RTC.
The same thing works fine in Classic.In RTC, am having the error 'The path specified in invalid'.
Even if i hardcode the path in the code,the error persists.

Anyone has a solution to it?Please please help me out.......

I think you are aware of this..the RTC will search for the given path in Servicetier installed system not on client system..

Dear Mohanna,

I have seen your previous post on 'Access local files with RTC'.You mentioned about using report Import Profiles - 9172

Can you please help with the code? I am new to RTC. Please help

Report 9172 has code..
Did you check?

Hi Mohana,

Yes, I did and I tried the code.

I used the upload function and used an instream to import the XML file.

But the connection to the server is lost each time i execute the code.

Hi,

First, I am fetching the default pathname to set in the dialog
salessetup.GET;
pathname:=COPYSTR(salessetup."Picture Directory",1,STRLEN(salessetup."Picture Directory")-1);

and then the code from Report 1972

IF ISSERVICETIER THEN
BEGIN
TempFile.CREATETEMPFILE;
FileName := TempFile.NAME;
TempFile.CLOSE;
IF UPLOAD('Import from XML File', '','XML Files (*.xml)|*.xml|All Files (*.*)|*.*','',FileName) THEN BEGIN

IFILE.OPEN(FileName);
IFILE.CREATEINSTREAM(istream);
XMLPORT.IMPORT(50002,istream);
IFILE.CLOSE;

MESSAGE('XML HAS BEEN SAVED');
END;
END;

@navgirl980:

What is your goal?

Importing xmlfile with XMLPORT?

navgirl980

Yes, i'm importing data from an XML file using an XML port.
I need to select the XML file from a path. (which is working in Classic but returns the following error in RTC - 'The specified path is invalid'.
The default path will be fetched from Sales & Receivables Setup.
As such ,I have tried to use the code from Report 9172 Import Profiles but it results in losing connection.

Can you help?

I just tried by adding XMLPort directly to MenuSuite.

But the same thing happened.I lost connection to the server.

Please, can anyone help

Strange..Check by adding any existing xmlports like 8003 - Product. BOM

navgirl980

Is the code that I wrote ok?

mohana_cse06

Where did you write that code?

Code is not neccessary at present..simply add the xmlport in menusuite and run it frokm RTC..Select Import and click ok..it will ask you to select the path...

navgirl980

i tried with XMLPort 8002 Item. it is working fine and i didnt have to make use of the code from Report 9172 Import Profiles.

mohana_cse06

Now try with your XMLPORT..it should work as above..
