Hijacking lookups in enhanced integration dialogs

Hi,

Is it possible to hijack the lookups on the enhanced integration dialogs?

We want to create a custom lookup for the document type/class. I can see how to do it for the other dialogs (New Profile, Edit Profile etc) in the SDK but didn't notice anything for the enhanced dialogs.

Also, is it possible to remove the sub class lookup/field?

Regards

Chris

This is the key you use to place your custom lookup command's progid to hijack the EAI Save As dialog:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Interwoven\WorkSite\8.0\iManExt\File Save Form

This will hijack everywhere the EAI Save As dialog is prompted.

You can use scripting (filesave.nrs) to gray-out the subclass field inside Office Integration but not inside FileSite. What are you trying to accomplish in doing this?

We have a client who wants to change the document type lookup dialog - they only want to have alias and description appear in that order (they did want some extra information in there as well, but have now decided against it) and they are not using sub classes, so they want to hide/remove that option.

Thanks for the registry key. My development machine doesn't have that registry key on it (FileSite 8.2 SP1 clean install - I might have to do some investigation on that one!), but I've got another machine that does have it - so now it all makes sense.

Thanks!

You can cause the Subclass field to gray-out if you add condition to check, say, the class field value change at OnChange, then call SetAttributeValueByID to disable the subclass field. Other than that, I don't see a way you can disable it.

You may also check with TSS to see whether there is a way to manually remove this field from the EAI Save As dialog but I don't think so.

If you navigate to the iOutlook folder under your FileSite 8.2 installed path, you should see the nrtexch.reg. If you merge this registry file, the original file menus will be restored, which in effect, restore the original registry keys corresponding to the menus.
