Using MAS90 and MAS200 Customizer Scripting to show a document related to an inventory item

This came from a stream in our discussion group. It allows you to associate a PDF (usually a drawing) with items and have the ability to click a button to automatically bring it up (and email it if necessary). It is designed to properly error trap if the document can’t be found. Thanks to all our group members for this.

Dim PDFPath
PDFPath = “N:\DataDocs\”

Dim PDFFile
Dim wsh
dim filesys

PDFFile =ML_ITEM_NO& “.pdf”

set wsh = CreateObject(“WScript.Shell”)

Set filesys = CreateObject(“Scripting.FileSystemObject”)

if filesys.FileExists(PDFPath & PDFFile) then

Return = wsh.Run (chr(34) & PDFPath & PDFFile & chr(34),1,False)
else
msgbox “File ” & PDFPath & PDFFile & ” Not Found”,, “File Not Found”

end if
