FactoryLink 8.0 client builder window control

Using FactoryLink 8.0 I need to have a window pop up in ClientBuilder when a specific tag goes to a true state. In the old FL6.6.0 version this was easy but I cannot find a way for this ClientBuilder to behave in a similar fashion.

You need to do it using Visual Basic for Applications that comes embedded in ClientBuilder.

Hi,

As Romulo wrote, you must use the FL VBA to carry out this kind of things if you are working with Client Builder (FL 7.x and higher).

The good and old feature called "Windows Enable Control" used by Application Editor is not present in Client Builder unfortunately so, your plan B is VBA.

Here you can see and learn how to do this kind of things, maybe, it is more than you want but can help you:
