I'm trying to capture the results of my focexec for use in an ASP.net procedure. I'm not sure of the syntax or how it can be done. For example:


TABLE FILE CAR

BY CAR

IF CAR EQ 'TOYOTA'

ON TABLE SAVE AS FILE1

END

-RUN


-READ FILE1 &THECAR.A10.


-**Would like to take results of focexec to my .Net page


<%

response.redirect "https://MyURLGoesHere.aspx&THECAR="&(THECAR)&""

%>

I would use:
TABLE FILE CAR
BY CAR
IF CAR EQ 'TOYOTA'
ON TABLE SAVE AS FILE1
END
-RUN
-READ FILE1 &THECAR.A10.
-HTMLFORM BEGIN
<html>
<script>
location.href="https://MyURLGoesHere.aspx?THECAR=!IBI.AMP.THECAR;"
</script>
</html>
-HTMLFORM END


And don't forget a default action if there are no records.

Thanks Alan. I will test and let you know the results. Incidentally, if I had more than one variable to pass to the .NET program would the syntax be:


location.href="https://MyURLGoesHere.aspx?VAR1=!IBI.AMP.VAR1?VAR2=!IBI.AMP.VAR2;"

Exactly. But don't forget the semi-colon after VAR1! A variable comes in as !IBI.AMP.variable; .

Alan: The procedure seems to work fine with one variable being passed to the next page. However when I try to pass two variables:


I printed it out three ways:

-SET VAR1 = '12345';

-SET VAR2 = 'ABCDE';


A - location.href="https://MyURLGoesHere.aspx?VAR1=!IBI.AMP.VAR1;"

B - location.href="https://MyURLGoesHere.aspx?VAR2=!IBI.AMP.VAR2;"

C - location.href="https://MyURLGoesHere.aspx?VAR1=!IBI.AMP.VAR1;?VAR2=!IBI.AMP.VAR2;"

Option A and B print out fine, But option C prints out: 12345?VAR2=ABCDE


I can't seem to break out the second variable.

Sorry

That's me being inattentive.

location.href="https://MyURLGoesHere.aspx?VAR1=!IBI.AMP.VAR1;&|VAR2=!IBI.AMP.VAR2;"

replacing the second ? with an &|.

The ? starts the string and the first name/value pair,and all subsequent name/value pairs are separated with the &. The concat because otherwise WF thinks its an &var. Then your request.querystring can pick up VAR1 and VAR2.
