Roberto Parisi · Post by **Roberto Parisi** » Fri Sep 29, 2006 1:55 pm

is it possibile to use string enumrators with fw activex?

I don't know how to find the correspondent numeric of a string enumerator.

oObj := TActiveX():New(...)

oObj:SetProp("Alignment", taRight)

taRight is a numeric enumerator, but I don't know what number is, how to get it?

I hope you understand my bad english.

Regards,
Roberto

Roberto,

I see what you mean, thanks

taRight is a constant value that may be defined in a header file. Anyhow, you may try with 0, 1, 2, 3, etc.

Many thx Antonio.

Ok... my problem is that with complex activex with tens of enumrations i don't know what number I must use. Is there a way to get a list (like an array) of enumrations? Reading many commercial activex docs I see they give for an activex the following groups:
- Properties
- Methods
- Events
- Enumrations

I get properties, methods and events lists, but I don't know how to get enumerations list.

Thx in advance,
Roberto

Roberto,

No, sorry, we don't know how to get those enumerations values yet. You may review the OCX with Microsoft OleView tool to get all its info.

What OCX are you using ?
