Hi,
I want to generate an information message at a specific time so i am using "Navision Timer 1.0'.Timer" automation and to test it i have added the bellow given code on a newly created Codeunit but as per my expectation it's not working so, can anyone help me out & say where i am doing wrong :roll: ...


IF ISCLEAR(NavTim) THEN
CREATE(NavTim);

NavTim.Interval:=10000;
NavTim.Enabled:=TRUE;

Event :NavTim::Timer(Milliseconds:Integer)
Message('Hi');

    Hi,

    Did you already set the SingleInstance property of the codeunit to Yes?

    When you make change to a single instance codeunit you will have to restart NAV (or reopen the company).

    Modified=Yes;
    Version List=;
    }
    PROPERTIES
    {
    SingleInstance=Yes;
    OnRun=BEGIN
    IF ISCLEAR(NavTim) THEN
    CREATE(NavTim);

    NavTim.Interval:=6000;
    NavTim.Enabled:=TRUE;
    END;

    }
    CODE
    {
    VAR
    NavTim@1000000000 : Automation "{3B311C81-140E-11D5-8B18-00D0590B4EC5} 1.0:{3B311C92-140E-11D5-8B18-00D0590B4EC5}:'Navision Timer 1.0'.Timer" WITHEVENTS;

    EVENT NavTim@1000000000::Timer@1(Milliseconds@1000000000 : Integer);
    BEGIN
    MESSAGE('hi');
    END;

    EVENT NavTim@1000000000::TimerError@2(ErrorString@1000000000 : Text[1024]);

    The NTimer is not working properly when the Business Notification server is installed on the same machine. May be this is the problem...

    1) How did you run the codeunit?
    2) Have you some other error during this process?
    3) Check your event log for any error

    If you do something like this:
    CODEUNIT.RUN(CODEUNIT::"Nav_Timer");
WHILE TRUE DO BEGIN
  // do something
END;

    The timer will never be triggered.
    In will only be triggered if NAV is waiting for input.

    So, in the NAS, you need to launch the codeunit and then NAV has to go to the end of the function and stop doing something.
