PC-DMIS form display problem

Greetings,

I am very new to PC-DMIS and not a quality personnel, so please excuse me if I ask something very basic.

I am asked to automate our measurements in various ways and I have a good experience in using visual basic. We are using software version 2010 MR3 (as i remember, it's on another site so I couldn't double check) and I have experienced a problem with using forms, I create a form and save it with no problem, but in a sample program to test this, the program runs and ends without displaying the form (I did put the syntax to call the form). Maybe it flashes and continues on to execute without waiting for user input, I'm totally stuck here and I couldn't find any information online. I'm hoping someone can help me.

Best Regards,

  • When you insert the code for calling the FORM, the command (in the PC-DMIS program) is by default "unmarked".
    This means that the command will not be executed, ie. commented out from execution.
    The background of the command is usually blue when it is unmarked.

    Try placing the cursor (in the PC-DMIS part program) in the command calling the FORM and press F3 once.
    If it was unmarked (ie. blue background) it should now look like any other command in the part program.
    Try run the part program again (or just the command calling the FORM) and see if the FORM is displayed.
