Trying to display License Agreement via Loop

[shawnj985]

[Post 1 of 2]

Hi all

I have an application with a main script.

A key part of the main script or start up script is a loop that I used just to

Display the license agreement if necessary. I don’t expect it to actually loop but

I don’t know any other way to do this.

Its suppose to set a variable then go into the loop. If the agreement has been read,

It will set a variable and exit loop. Well, this part works.

But if a variable is set to “No”, it performs a script to display a layout with the license

Agreement and below it is a sentence that asks the user: Do you agree? With two buttons

“Accept” or “Cancel”

If the user press the Yes button, the “Pressing I Accept …..” script is ran which set

Variables and fields. If the user presses “Cancel”, a variable is set and I had hope that the

User would exit the script and the loop and based on the variable; would exit the application as well. But neither two buttons are working as expected. If I press either button, I can tell that some steps are working but I stay on the license agreement layout.

I still cant seem to open it. Maybe you should try and create it again and possibly change the name.

Maybe you can try it this way... Do it in this order.

1. Create two scripts for Accept and Cancel Agreement.

AcceptAgree Script

Set Field [Preference::HaveReadLicenseAgreement; "Yes" ]

Commit Record []

Close Window ["Agreement Consent; Current File"]

Go to Layout ["Passed"]

Halt Script

CancelAgree Script

Close Window ["Agreement Consent; Current File"]

Select Window [Current Window]

Exit Application

2. On your License layout attach the script to the two buttons for "Agree" and "Cancel"

3. (Make sure you did step 1 & 2 already) Create the script to check for agreement

Agreement Check Script

Allow user Abort [Off]

Set Error Capture [on]

#

If [Preference::HaveReadLicenseAgreement = "No" ]

Freeze Window

New Window [Name: "Agreement Consent"; Height:480; Width:500; Top:10; Left:60]

Show/Hide Status Are [Lock; Hide]

Go to Layout ["License"]

Loop

Pause/Resume Script [indefinately]

End Loop

Else

Go to Layout ["Passed"]

End If
