see if you can get an input screen (or a few) and some reports and open/run it for a specific record. Next you need to try and see if you can match the data for a specific record to fields on the input screens or reports. That will give you a good understanding of how some of the fields fit together.

Years ago I bought 100m normal twin flex (2 wires only) and cut it into 2 pieces - a 75m and a 25m. Soldered them booth up to db25 connectors (pin 2 to 3 and pin 3 to 2 ; no pin 5) used both with laplink, the 25m at work (office to office) and the 75m between my flat on the 4th floor and a friend on the 2nd floor in the next building of flats. worked fine. (well, lost a serial card, you tend to forget that it is connected. there was some lightning in the surrounds, and the computer shut down a second or two before I heard the thunderclap. Fortunately only the serial card was lost - The computer started up normally when the serial card was removed)

Good day We have the requirement to invoke a Microsoft Outlook Meeting request from an Intranet web page without having the following (well known) message:

An ActiveX control on this page might be unsafe to interact with other parts of this page. Do you want to allow this interaction?

We want to use the standard installed (client side) Microsoft outlook libraries for that. We do not want to relax the Local intranet Zone in IE by means of the standard resolution method of enabling the “Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe for scripting” Setting.

This is a simplified version of the code, the message is invoked by the highlighted portion
<body>
<form id="frmScheduleAMeeting" runat="server">
<div>
<input id="btnScheduleTheMeeting" type="button" value="Schedule the meeting" onclick="ScheduleTheMeeting()" style="width: 200px" />
</div>
</form>

<script type="text/javascript">
    function ScheduleTheMeeting() {
        //Reference to Outlook.Application 
        var theApp;
        //Outlook.mailItem
        var theMeeting;
        var theApp = new ActiveXObject("Outlook.Application");    //  -- this is where we get the error
        var objNS = theApp.GetNameSpace('MAPI');
        var theMeeting = theApp.CreateItem(1); // value 0 = MailItem, 1 = meeting

        theMeeting.Subject = "Will this time suit you?";
        theMeeting.Location = "Your Office";
        theMeeting.Recipients.Add("someone@microsoft.com");
        theMeeting.Start = "01/01/2017 10:00:00"
        theMeeting.End = "01/01/2017 11:00:00"

        theMeeting.ReminderMinutesBeforeStart = 15;   // Number of minutes before the event for the reminder
        theMeeting.BusyStatus = 1;                    // Makes it appear bold in the calendar

        theMeeting.AllDayEvent = false;
        theMeeting.BusyStatus = 1;

        theMeeting.Save();
        theMeeting.Display();
        theMeeting.Recipients.ResolveAll();
        theMeeting.Save();
    }
</script>

</body>

We have tried to mark it safe in the registry as safe for scripting (7DD95801-9882-11CF-9FA9-00AA006C42C4) and safe for initializing from persisten
