Hello,

i want to repeat my questions and give some more informations about it:

The assignment is to display the fail/pass count (and other varaibles) from the sql database in the statusbar of the OI window.  And this after every UUT at execution time.

1. I want to get informations (like global variables) from TestStand and receive it with the OI after every UUT at execution time.

Some solution maybe to generate a UIMessage in TestStand (PostUUT/PostUIMessage) and received this with the OI. But how does it work? Example?

2. The really difficulty part is to display this informations in the statusbar of the OI at execution time.

thankyou for your help

Hi,

You can use the Thread.PostUIMessageEx(eventcode = UIMsg_ProgressText, , YourTextParam, , ) method.

The OI will then display your supplied text to the StatusBar of the OI or SeqEditor. You dont have to do anything extra in the OI to handle this.

Hope this helps
