Info Bar message cannot be seen due to precedence of previous message

783124May 16 2012 — edited May 17 2012
I am trying to present a message to the user in the BefExportToDat event script. The message is added to the Info Bar fine, but the problem is that the user never gets to see the message! It is relegated to second place as "Message (2 of 2)", and since a modal popup immediately appears asking the user which load method to use, the user is unable to click on the "Next" button to actually view this message as it disappears immediately after the user has dealt with the modal popup window.

The same problem arises if I do the same with the AftExportToDat event script, so it is difficult to see where best to place the message in the process chain.

Ideally, I would like to promote my message to first place ("Message (1 of 2)"), and also to make it an Error or Warning message rather than an Information message.

Any ideas?! :-)

Have you tried updating the configuration setting for the amount of time that the message is displayed?

James, I don't know if thiere is a way to promote your Info Bar message, but given that it may not be possible, would a pop-up window work better in this situation?

Yes this is a good solution, or at least it would be if the message window were left on top, instead of the modal popup and the main window taking centre-stage again a split second later! Is there a way to keep this message window on top?

Another possible solution - do you know if it would be possible to add the message to the "LoadOptMethodVal" Option of the adapter, by passing in the message string? It would be great if the message could feature in the Target System Load modal popup. I suspect not, but it would be ideal, since this would then give the user the option of whether to proceed with the data load or not. I tried modifying the Description field, but this does not appear to feature in the modal popup.
