Timer issue with RTC

mettiusimmons

Hi everybody,
I have an issue with a MESSAGE output in a timer automation trigger, here is the code:

AutTimer::Timer(Milliseconds : Integer)
IF a <> b THEN BEGIN
a := b;
MESSAGE('........');
END;

In classic the MESSAGE appears correctly, in RTC it never appears.
In some other discussions I've seen that timer automation has some trouble with RTC but mine is working fine, the MESSAGE is the only problem.
Anybody has any suggestion?

Thanks

How do you know that the automation is working fine? Have you been able to debug the event raised from Timer?

By the way, in the newer NAV there is a PingPong control add-in for this:

Microsoft.Dynamics.Nav.Client.PingPong;PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35

The variable is correctly changed so I'm pretty sure that the timer is working fine until the MESSAGE instruction.
We're working on a 2009 R2, I suppose PingPong is not available.
Thanks
