How can Istart a Workflow using OScript 1

[LarsHw]

Hello,

has anybody an idea how to start a workflow and add some attachments in an oscript modul? I know that there are the WAPI and $WFMain functions but the documentation only describes the functions and not how to use them?

Greetings

Well the best way to do it is in a custom module something that they give in the builder class called wfcustom.It is part of the workflow customization fundamentals course book.I only have a hard copy hence I cannot share it electronically.You will start building it by orphaning all the wanted classes or if you search in KB you should be able to find a good script called MakeNewModule.lxe or somewhat like that which orphans the needed classes or shell for your new module.Now it is only a metter of finding the right WAPI calls.In fact KB has a posting by user 'dnalls' who has written the same.It is a set of three scripts one gets a workflow attribute,one sets a workflow attribute,and one initiates one.If you trace that code you should be able to find the defined attachment dtree dataid and bingo
