Abort operation

[pHol]

Hi!

I've looked through the forum and haven't found the answer to this, but is it possible to abort an operation if e.g a requirement is not met in the operBeforeExecute event?

Hi!

If I understand correctly your answer is that I should set the Result parameter to not 0 and to set the Handled parameter to true. This is done already. The Result parameter is 1 and Handled is true.
I'm calling a custom event after this is done and I needed to do that in an new task, to fix the problem I was having...

Hello pHol,

Yes, by setting those parameters to those values, the operation won't be executed further. What problem are you experiencing with this exactly?

Cheers,

Hi Alex,

I fixed my issue. Just needed to call the custom event in an new task. I already have the parameters set to abort but before I was calling the event in a new task I got still got the opening document dialog/progress bar window and the UI froze. But using a new task to call my event, the operation is aborted and nothing happens and I can handle my custom event the way I want to
