I am using Samsung Tab A7 lite and the android version is 13. I am using the following code, but the calculate does not popup. Any idea who to resolve this issue.

function showCalculator()
if getos() = 10 then
// Windows
execsystem("calc.exe");
elseif getos() = 20 then
// Android - different devices have different built in calculators.
// Samsung uses app:com.sec.android.app.popupcalculator,
// LG and HTC use app:com.android.calculator2.
// We will try one and if it doesn't work then try the other.
if execsystem("app:com.sec.android.app.popupcalculator") <> 1 then
if execsystem("app:com.android.calculator2") <> 1 then
errmsg("Unable to launch calculator.");
endif;
endif;
endif;
end;

Google added security restrictions to applications in Google Play that restrict their ability to open external applications. If you need to open another application, you can try installing the version of CSEntry that circumvents these restrictions. The latest version, 7.7.3, is here:

https://www.csprousers.org/apk/csentry7.7.3.apk

This cannot be hosted on Google Play, so if you intend to use this, you will have to manually install it on your devices.

Because of the Google security restriction, it's a better approach to use the CSPro-JS API to enhance CSEntry apps. For the calculator, there's lot of Javascript examples on the web: https://www.google.com/search?q=javascr ... 6&dpr=1.25

You can easily pick one and add it to you CSEntry apps.
Best,

Dear Gregory,
Thanks for the clarification. I worked.
