Customize error messages

[ianburgess]

In Nettalk web app (Nettalk 5) how can I customize the error messages that users get, eg. Creates Duplicate Key type messages?

Hi Ian,

context matters - so you have to be very specific about what error message you are looking at, and when the user sees it.
Screen-shots are good.

Here is example screenshot of Duplicate key error - see attached.

The generic duplicate text message is in

p_web.site.DuplicateText

it defaults to

'Creates Duplicate Record on'

You can change this in the WebHandler procedure, ProcessLink method, before parent call.

If you want to suppress the message more then I recommend embedding in the CheckForDuplicate routine in the specific form affected.
