Use of ARSOLE.OCX
« on: December 05, 2019, 11:33:47 AM »
I am considering an integration with the OnDemand Client v.10.1 using the ARSOLE.OCX Controls.  I was wondering if there are many users who have already implemented this interface and if anyone can share their implementation experience.  Specifically, we are looking at the VB interface.

Thanks,
Joe

Joe,  I can't say I've had any experience with this recently.  I vaguely remember years ago(many) that there were that there was something about Ondemand client and VB in the OnDemand Toolbox

I was specifically looking at the Client OCX Control that seems to be very complete and well documented in the Windows Client Customization Guide (SC19-3357-02) available for download at:

Hey Joe,

Would you be willing to share a description of the problem you are trying to solve?

Thanks,

I have a VB.Net application running on each PC.  I want to enable the user processing a Claim in the app to take an action to display a list of all OnDemand archived documents indexed using that Claim Number, then select one or more documents from the list to display.  I want to restrict the user to only seeing documents associated with the Claim Number they are currently processing in the VB.Net application.

Certainly seems like something you could accomplish with OCX controls. From your description I don't see any issues. Another option might be to call web services (you would have to build those) from your VB app. Do these users already have an ID in OnDemand or would you use a generic ID?

Thanks,

RR

For the 64 bit client, it looks like arsole.ocx is not supported.  Did anyone ever find a way to use ole with the 64bit client?

https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEPCD_10.5.0/com.ibm.ondemand.winclient.doc/dodwc257.htm

Note: OLE Controls are supported by the 32-bit OnDemand client. OLE Controls are not supported by the 64-bit OnDemand client.

Yes, replying to an old post.

arsole.ocx is now fully supported in the 64 bit version of the client.
