Hi there, We are upgrading from 4.3.1 to 5.2.3. We use MIMSJ for our connector applications on Mincom TP. When we initialise our object, we send the parameter to connect TP. We currently initialise MIMSJ with a CONNECT_TPNET like this...

Hi, We're upgrading MIMS 4.3.1 to Ellipse 5.2.3, and carrying most user exits forward. We were only using terminal interface for MIMS, and so had not implemented any of the user exits at the object level. Where we were using BOC, we are embedding the user exit logic in the application that...

Hi, We're upgrading from 4.3.1 to 5.2.3 in the next few months. Given that the organisation has Active Directory in place, I am surprised that our sys admins are still debating Unix vs Ellipse authentication. I'm pretty tired of MIMS authentication being thought of as distinct from the...

Thanks for the responses... AlphaCoward, We would have to use MSO's because MSKs don't provide a search or modify method. Using MSO610, the only search criteria is EGI, and then you have to step through the results and decide what to do with each component modifier (I should add we are MIMS...

Hi, We are looking at hving to update our Equipment Profiles (EGI-Component-Modifier build), and this will involve adds and deletes. We have about 100,000 records to update. There are no useful search criteria on the MSO's, so for each EGI we have to step through screens. Our guesstimate is...

Hi, Has anyone successfully got 2 applications running on the same machine that both use the MSO object? The BOC doco says that you need to set a Shared Connection parameter prior to doing a connect, but this doesn't seem to help. Any ideas? Steve

Hi, We are developing using ASP.Net, VB.Net and MIMS Connector. The main problem we have had so far is multithreading the MIMSX.dll on a webserver, which Mincom has fixed in a recent version of MIMSX. But apart from that it all just works. In your .Net project add a reference to the MIMSX...

An Update... By wrapping the request up in a transaction (using _BeginTxn and _Commit), the delete works. Steve

Hi, Has anyone got the Delete method of the STDTEXT object working in BOC? We are just getting an error and it shouldn't be that hard...we can create, retrieve std text with no problems. MyBlock = mobjMIMS.MIMSConnector.Blocks.[New]("MyBlock") ExtendedDescription =...

Perhaps you need to write an application to pick files off the Unix file system and put them somewhere that your externals can get at them...if you are using Samba then a bit of VB or VBA would probably do the trick quite easily. Cheers, Steve

Hi, We've been playing with BOC for a while now, using both the objects (mmm...objects) and the MSO interface. We have recently come across an issue where when we attempt to write to a protected field on a screen, there is no error or warning, so it looks like the field will be updated, but the...

You need to talk to Mincom about Connector (or Business Object Connector). Buying this gives you samples and doco for interfacing to MIMS. Steve

Although this may not help with working out error handling, but why not use the MaintSchedTsk object? Steve

Thanks Dallas - that looks promising. Its even commented! Steve

Does anyone have either - some good documentation, or - some nice VB code that explains the StdText object? The supplied doco is a bit vague and the only sample is in delphi. We are trying to append extended text to work orders. Thanks, Steve

Hi all, I'm having terrible trouble trying to install OE and Connector so that it works reliably. It works for a bit, then I get an error in asia32.exe ("referenced memory cannot be read"). It does work on some PC's, but it took a few goes. The installation I am doing goes like...

MIMS Connector should provide what you are looking for - it provides an API to a set of defined MIMS objects (eg Equipment, Work Orders etc), and also to the MSO programs where an object is not available. You will need to talk to Mincom. I don't know anything about developing for Tuxedo, but...
