Method Community

Hey Brent - yes I did receive the email about Google Gears.  Thank you for sending me that.  I haven't had the time to go through everything myself, and the other Method developers have their hands full, so it's something we need to look into in the future once we get time on our hands. Without knowing too much about it, though, ...

Brent, Hope your holidays went well. "CustomFields are not returning when i tried with MethodAPIFieldList which will return list of fields for the Customer table..(According to method documentation, we can post the values to the fileds, which is returning by the API - MethodAPIFieldList" -If there aren't any custom fields coming ...

Hey Michael - Further to Danny's message.  We will be setting up a QX Online forum on the QXpress site.  Right now we are doing some finishing touches on the Method app library, that will be used to allow existing Method users to beta QX Online without having to create a separate account. Plus, there are some last minute ...

Hi Brent, Very cool - I'm interested to see what you guys are coming up with.  I have answered this question, that was posted yesterday, here: http://methodintegration.com/cs/forums/p/135/327.aspx#327 I just did an online form last week using the MethodAPI.

Our company is all about systems. We are fanatical about them. We maximize as much efficiency as we can out of our team and waste no time on tasks that can be automated.  How else do you think a small 13 person company could pull off a monster project like Method while still maintaining our existing brands?  Blood and sweat will only ...

Hi Navaneethan, We haven't created any PHP or Coldfusion examples yet. But all you need to do is consume the web service the way you would any other .net web service.  There's lots out there on google about using web services with PHP.  One tool that looks promising is: http://sourceforge.net/projects/nusoap/ I'd like to ...

Hi there.  Val and Kris won't be in the office until Monday, so perhaps I can help. From what I understand, you have a child table (we'll call "InvoiceOtherDetail") and a parent table (Invoice).  What you want to do is put a grid on the screen for this child table so that when you are creating an invoice you can also ...

We have a slight problem here at Method.  We have rebranded a "developer" as someone who develops their own system.  Afterall, Method is a platform that is all drag and drop, no programming.  But the old school way of thinking is that only a programmer can be called a developer.   This leaves those who actually ...

On Friday (September 5th, 2008) Method has filed its first patent application to the United States Patent and Trademark Office!  In fact it is the first and only patent that our company, Alocet Incorporated, has ever filed, and let me tell you, it is quite a process. What for you ask?  Well, if you break method into two parts: the ...
