PdcClockLine.CopyID

Declaration

CopyID as Integer

Description

This method copies a clockline.

Notes

Returns the AO_ID from the newly copied clockline. If the clockline is part of a nest, it will copy all the clocklines in the nest and returns the last AO_ID. If Copy is not succesfull, it will return 0 and stores the error in PdC.App.LastError.

Code example

This code example copies a clockline which includes a nest. After the copy, it alters the EndTime of the original clockline and the StartTime of the copied clockline. With this example it's possible to split a nesting of clocklines and change the TimeTyp of the copied nest.

BEWARE!!! The closing and re-opening of the original clockline is not a mistake, this is the only way to have both lines saved without registration problems!!

  Dim ClockLineID As Integer = 381
  Dim CopiedID As Integer = 0 
  Dim OriginalClockLine As PDCEXT.IClockLine 
  Dim CopiedClockLine As PDCEXT.IClockLine

      OriginalClockLine = PDC.App.ProductRegistration.ClockLines.Open(ClockLineID)
      CopiedID = OriginalClockLine.CopyID(ClockLineID)
      releaseObject(OriginalClockLine)
      OriginalClockLine = PDC.App.ProductRegistration.ClockLines.Open(ClockLineID)

    If CopiedID > 0 Then
      CopiedClockLine = PDC.App.ProductRegistration.ClockLines.Open(CopiedID)
      OriginalClockLine.EndTime = OriginalClockLine.EndTime - 1
      CopiedClockLine.StartTime = CopiedClockLine.StartTime + 1
      CopiedClockLine.TimeType = "2"
      if Not OriginalClockLine.Save Then
        MsgBox(PDC.App.LastError)
      End If
      if Not CopiedClockLine.Save Then
        MsgBox(PDC.App.LastError)
      End If
    Else
      MsgBox(PDC.App.LastError)
    End If
