7.17 statusmessage()

Purpose

With statusmessage(), you can display the messages related to the status of the SAP process while executing the WS script. Generally executing this command in a function displays the following types of messages on the listbox.

  • Display a status message listbox
  • Display custom messages
  • Display system messages
  • Display IDs for system messages

All messages appear in an onscreen message box.


Syntax

statusmessage({"title":"Title","size":[rows,cols],"position":[startRow,startCol]});


Available Options

You can use the following options with the statusmessage:

"addstring":".."

{"addstring":variable_name} or {"addstring":"string"} - Adds a custom message within the dialog box (listbox).

"position":".."

{"position":[startRow,startCol]} - Specifies the onscreen position of the messagebox.

"remove":".."

{"remove":true} - Removes the listbox from the screen.

"size":".."

{"size":[rows,cols]} - Specifies the size of the onscreen listbox in rows and columns.

"title":".."

{"title":variable_name} or {"title":"title_string"} - Creates the title to the onscreen listbox.
