Administrator SYSMETRIC retrieves the specified system metric into a variable. The table below shows examples of General Commands: Command Action MSG ″Click OK to continue″ FONT Times 12 1 255 0 0 GET V1,4,5 File Commands display message, wait for click change font to red 12point Times bold place the value of item number 5 in section 4 into the variable V1 SOUND beep.wav play the sound in the files beep.wav READMOL filename WRITEMOL filename WRITETEXT filename READMOL and WRITEMOL operate on the current molecule. These commands will work only if there is at least one structure-related box (structure, formula, or molweight) on the form, and you are positioned to a valid entry in the database. READMOL reads a specified structure file and replaces the current molecule in the form. WRITEMOL saves the current molecule to a specified structure file; if the file doesn’t exist, it is created, otherwise it is overwritten. For both READMOL and WRITEMOL, the format of the file is determined by its extension; for example, benzene.cdx is a ChemDraw file. WRITETEXT exports the current list as delimited text with whatever delimiter is specified in the Preferences dialog. The table below shows examples of File Commands: Command Action READMOL benz.mol WRITEMOL saved.mol WRITETEXT hits.txt read specified file to become current molecule write current molecule to specified file export current list to a text file Database Commands OPENDB [R / R / RE] dbname CRETABLE tablename DELTABLE tablename SELTABLE tablename CREFIELD fieldname DELFIELD fieldname SORT [D] fieldname OPENDB opens a standard molecule database. Specify a pathname to the .mdb file, or a name from the ODBC Data sources list. You can specify the mode of database opening: • R—read-only • E—exclusive • RE—read-only and exclusive CRETABLE creates tables in the current database. DELTABLE deletes tables in the current database. SELTABLE selects a table form the current database and makes it the current working table for subsequent field actions. A-18 • <strong>CambridgeSoft</strong> File Commands
CREFIELD creates fields in the current table in the current database. You can specify the field type and width in the CREFIELD command. The default text field is 50 characters wide. DELFIELD deletes fields in the current table in the current database. SORT sorts the database contents on the specified field. The default sorts the database in ascending order. You can specify descending order with D. The table below shows examples of Database Commands: Command Action CRETABLE MyTable creates a new table DELTABLE MyTable deletes a new table Variable Commands SETVAL [v] text READVAL [v] filename WRITEVAL [v] filename INPUT [v] [prompt] PASSWORD [v] [default] GETDATA [v] box PUTDATA box text APPEND ON|OFF APPENDVAL [v] [text] INCREMENT [v] DECREMENT [v] LET v v op v CAL has nine variables called V1, V2, ..., V9. These are temporary storage locations you can use to move information between form boxes and other data sources. Variable names can be substituted in any CAL command. Any item shown in italics in a command description may be replaced by the name of a variable, prefixed with a dollar sign. For example: MSG messagemay be either: MSG "An explicit message" —a message explicitly coded into the script—or MSG $V2 —a message taken from variable 2 at run time You may concatenate variables, and variables and literals together in CAL commands. You must add both a leading and trailing dollar sign to the variable name. For example: MSG$V2$$V1$ Displays a message box with the value of V2 immediately followed by the value of V1. Most commands for manipulating variables take an optional variable number as the first argument. If the number is omitted, it is assumed to be 1. SETVAL puts the specified text into a variable. READVAL reads the contents of a text file into a variable. WRITEVAL copies the contents of a variable to a file. INPUT displays a text input dialog, accepts data from the user and stores it in a variable. An optional prompt string is displayed in the box when it appears. PASSWORD is the same as INPUT, but displays all characters as asterisks. GETDATA retrieves the contents of a form box (as long as it is not a structure) into a variable; see above for how to identify a box. PUTDATA copies <strong>ChemFinder</strong> 8 • A-19 Variable Commands
