Modifying [data].dat.not
Posted: September 10th, 2013, 12:00 am
I keep asking Greg and I know that he is overwhelmed with topics so this is addressed to anyone that has done something similar. hehehe ... But feel free to comment, Greg
Ok. I am writing error messages and then modifying the note file to add the error message to a specific question so that during error corrections if a particular item has an error a small script will check if the note contains an error message then invokes the field note to see how to address the problem. The reason for this method is to dynamically remove and update error messages with out the hassle of using the errmsg function. So my question is what is the structure of the note (*.dat.not) file? Knowing this will help me write multiple line messages to this file. I am also thinking about putting the specific solutions to the help file that it related to a particular data item. So does anybody know where this file is and what the extension is?
Thanks,
Pierre
