Details

The _do method sends an OLE-supplied method and its parameters to an OLE object. The number of parameters (in-parm arguments) needed varies among different OLE objects and methods. Only OLE-supplied methods that have no return value should be used with the _do method. For OLE-supplied methods with return values, use the _compute method.

Example

The following example sends the 'AboutBox' method to an OLE control, which displays the About Box for the control:

    call notify('oleobj', '_do', 'AboutBox');
