Extract multiple data from AttachMate with account # in excel

Extract multiple data from AttachMate with account # in excel

(OP)
Hello everyone, im new at this and i like some help extracting data from Attachmate. So basically i have an account # in excel in cell "I2". When i press the extract button, in mainframe from T750 screen, it automatically enters the account # and moves to another screeen. From this screen at point 4, 12, i enter the number 2 and enter next screen enter #8 from 6, 2 and hit enter. On this final screen i have payments the customer made. I would like to extract these payments and dates.
I have this code below so far. Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Global g_HostSettleTime%
Global g_szPassword$

Sub Main()
'--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Get the main system object
Dim Sessions As Object

End If
Set Sessions = System.Sessions

If (Sessions is Nothing) Then
Msgbox "Could not create the Sessions collection object. Stopping macro playback."

End If

' Set the default wait timeout value
g_HostSettleTime = 75 ' milliseconds

OldSystemTimeout& = System.TimeoutValue
If (g_HostSettleTime > OldSystemTimeout) Then
System.TimeoutValue = g_HostSettleTime
End If

' Get the necessary Session Object

Set Sess0 = System.ActiveSession
If (Sess0 is Nothing) Then
Msgbox "Could not create the Session object. Stopping macro playback."
STOP
End If
If Not Sess0.Visible Then Sess0.Visible = TRUE
Sess0.Screen.WaitHostQuiet(g_HostSettleTime)

In addition, all this data would extract to excel spreadsheet

RE: Extract multiple data from AttachMate with account # in excel

Hi,

The next thing you must establish is the screen navigation logic. You need to document and include in you logic, for each screen, the SUCESSFUL result MESSAGE, the THERE'S MORE MESSAGE, and ALL the EXCEPTION MESSAGES and the WHAT TO DO NEXT for each of these conditions. All this logic must be coded BEFORE you think about your Excel read/write loop.
