How to list the OBJECTID names on WPS ?

(1/2) > >>

Hi

I forgot which was the way to see the "ObjectID" of a folder or program on the WPS desktop.

For example when creating an Object on WarpIn:

 CREATEOBJECT="WPFolder|Alien Blaster|<WP_APPSFOLDER>|OBJECTID=<AlienBlasterFOLDER>;"
                                 ▲              ▲                 ▲                        ▲
                                 ▲              ▲                 ▲                        ▲
                              WPSClass     Name     Parent folder OID       ObjectID.

What was the easy way to know the ObjectIDs on the objects of the desktop for example. Any Script or Utility suggestion is welcome.

I know it should be easy but I just forgot about it.

Regards

Hi Martin

You may find getobj.cmd useful. From the comments, which include use instructions, included in getobj.cmd:-

/* Description                                                        */
/*   GETOBJ creates a list containing the data for all objects in a   */
/*   folder (and it's sub folder). For each object the title, the     */
/*   class, the setup string and the location is shown.               */
/*   GETOBJ can also create a REXX program with SysCreateObject calls */
/*   to recreate the objects.                                         */
/*                                                                    */

In the case that one desktop object contains several folder or program objects.

--- Code: ---/* REXX */
call RxfuncAdd SysLoadFuncs, RexxUtil, SysLoadFuncs
call SysLoadFuncs

call SysIni 'USER', 'PM_Workplace:Location', 'All:', 'Keys'
if RESULT \= 'ERROR:' then DO i=1 to Keys.0
      SAY Keys.i
   END
else SAY RESULT
return

--- End code ---

Martin Iturbide:
Thank you.

Both ways worked great.

I found a way to find that information one by one by checking the properties inside "file" (check attachment), but your ways are a lot faster and better.

Martin,

  Yet another way is to right-click the object, go to 'Properties', then the 'Icon' tab and at the bottom click 'Details...'
