Hi
We are working with R10 and looking for information on how to add a
button next to the logoff button to call a non T24application. Is it
possible for the called application to be a "tab" on the browser or
a window within the browser? the app to 1. provide over view
documentation 2. or in another case call up excel
we donot want the user to have access outside of t24 the browser

thank you

How to Add a Toolbar in a Composite Screen Frame
A toolbar (group of buttons) can be displayed in a Composite Screen
frame to run specified pieces of
functionality.
For example, it is possible to define a Composite Screen that has 2
frames :-
1. A toolbar containing 3 tools :-
A button (text display) to create a New Customer
A button (text display) to create a New Account
A button (image display) to display the Google web page in a new
window
2. A frame where the creation of new customers and accounts
(transactions) are performed

To do this :-
1. Define new BROWSER.TOOL records for the new buttons required in the
toolbar (e.g. called
TEST.NEW.CUSTOMER, TEST.NEW.ACCOUNT and TEST.GOOGLE ). The TYPE of the
toolbar depends
on the action that the button is to perform. This is likely to be
DO.DEAL if a command line syntax is
required (e.g. “CUSTOMER I F3”) or JAVASCRIPT if a custom defined
JavaScript function is being (e.g.
to make a call to an external system).
2. Define a new BROWSER.TOOLBAR record that contains the new tool
records by multi-valuing the
TOOL.ID field.
3. Add the new BROWSER.TOOLBAR to an EB.COMPOSITE.SCREEN record which
has a frame TYPE of
TOOLBAR and the toolbar name in the CONTENT field.
Customising Composite Screens
4. Run the Composite Screen to display the button.
