C# Questions: Using Control developed in Visual Studio

Original Post: Paul Snow 26/05/2011 18:50:50

"I have a control that I have added to Matter Center and have successfully added it to a Form. The problem I am having is that the control has some properties that are listed on the advanced Tab in the designer, but I need to pass data via scripting. How do I access these Advanced properties for the control in script. I have tried Enquiryform.GetControl and EnquiryForm.GetIBasicEnquiryControl2 but cannot see how to access the (DailyView) properties.
I have attached a screenshot. in the screenshot I would like to pass the control the StartDate value when the form opens. Any guidance would be appreciated."

"Hi Paul,
You should be able to do the following
DailyView dv = EnquiryForm.GetControl(“DailyView”) as DailyView; Then you can access any properies on dv that are exposed."

"Thank you, wasn't using my brain.
Thank you for the quick response.
One final question do you support the list<n> datatype?"

"You can use it in scripting how are you trying to use it?"
