hi,

is it possible with opus pro04 to write a variable array in the registry?
I can't select my array variable when i use the action "write data to registry" , and opus pro04 have only the function "ReadRegistryKey" in scripting !
What i try to achieve is :
- in a page, i have 6 text input with index 0,1,2,3,4,5 of an array variable
- when i click on a button "send", i want to write the array in the registry

(if it is not possible with opus pro04, is it possible with opus proXE ?)

thank's for help
Benoit

Hi,

Thank you for your enquiry.

The Write Data to Registry action should allow you to write an array variable to the registry. I have achieved this using the following procedure;

- Create a blank new publication
- Add a script object to the page
- Create an array of number using the following syntax:



- Now click Publication > Publication Properties > Variables
- Click New and create a new variable named myarray with a default blank text value
- Click Apply and OK to confirm the changes
- Now add a button to the page
- In the button actions, apply a Write Data to Registry action
- Set the Source Variable to newarray
- Set the Destination Label to Test
- Click Apply and OK to confirm the changes
- Now preview the page and click the button
- Exit the preview and click Start > Run
- Clear the current contents of the Open: field and type "regedit"
- Click OK. The Registry Editor should appear
- Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Digital Workshop\Opus Publication Data
- Look through all of the subfolders until you find the one containing the Test key
- The value of 'Test' should be 1,2,3,4,5

I hope this helps. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further queries.

Kind regards,

Hi Benoit,

I have attached a sample which I think does what you need.

Whoops! left this in the example after looking at what Robin had posted, not required.

thank you Robin...
thank you Andy. with your script i have see my mistake. I was trying to pass the variable array of the input box, directly with the "write data to registry"... and it was not possible...
now, that's ok.

thank you
