The basic concept is below:
1) VBForm calls Progress code (RUNPROG Vantage Basic statement).
2) Progress code gets information from VBForm and current record (i.e.
order, invoice, etc.).
3) Either Progress does "something" or Progress calls another program to do
"something" with the information. This something can be the sending of
emails or almost anything you want.

Wow. Rick, this could be a real key for us in some other areas. Can you do
a two line overview on what a person needs to set up things like Email
Alerts from a VBForm? Do you need Vantage Basic, or Progress or what?

By using the VBForm to call external program, you can basically add the
same
global alert functionality anywhere in Vantage. By setting up your
checkboxes in the VBform, and some programming, emails can be sent,
spreadsheets can be updated, etc. It can even be automated by using the
OnExit function of the VBForm.

Thanks for the reply. Are you using VB forms or that piece of paper?
Also, you must have established a procedure in which those 4 people
know when there is a new contract to review? Wouldn't a global alert
be nice in this case?
