Getting object attributes in OScript

Hi all,I'm trying to get the attributes of an object within Oscript, and am having quite a bit of difficulty. I can get the attribute category by calling the "DCATEGORY" element of the "CONTENTS", but how do I get the attributes associated with the document from there? I need to look through the attribute information so I can filter out specific documents. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Assoc data = .fResponse.datafor contentlist in data.contents String name = contentlist.name Integer id = contentlist.dataid String category = contentlist.dcategory // get the attribute information associated // with this object so we can filter on a // specific value.endThanksMichael Dailous

I tried to use this function (and the function DAPI.SetNodeUserAttr too) in the Livelink Builder 9.0.0, but it seems they don't work, returning the following message error:The user attribute is invalid.Did someone else try to use them?Any other suggestions?Thanks

Message from Kevin Ward via eLinkDAPI.GetNodeUserAttr and the other DAPI Attribute functions in Livelink 9 donot work like they did in previous versions. These functions were scaledback to work only with System Attributes due to the new complex categoriesand attributes.The best way to set, retrieve, or modify categories and attributes on a nodein Livelink 9 is to use the $LLIAPI.AttrData object. After allocating a newframe object of AttrData, there is a variety of scripts available to add orremove categories from your node. You can then manually traverse the treethat is created and set the attributes to whatever you want.If you require assistance, SDK support would be more than willing to help.Regards-----Original Message-----From: knowledge@opentext.com [mailto:knowledge@opentext.com]On Behalf OfeLink Discussion: Development DiscussionSent: Thursday, March 22, 2001 11:51 AMTo: eLink RecipientSubject: Re DAPI.GetNodeUserAttr doesn't work in LivelJrIGluIExpdmVsink9?k/Re DAPI.GetNodeUserAttr doesn't work in LivelJrIGluIExpdmVsink 9?k/Posted by eLink on 03/22/2001 11:51 AMMessage from Sean M Alderman via eLinkYes...I've actually got a system working now.
