Syntax

CALL NOTIFY (OLE-object, '_update', <in-hservice>);

Argument Type Description

in-hservice
C specifies the name of the HSERVICE entry to use to update the object

Argument	Type	Description
in-hservice	C	specifies the name of the HSERVICE entry to use to update the object

Details

The _update method re-creates an object and updates its contents based on its current attributes. The in-hservice parameter is used only with OLE objects and is the name of an HSERVICE catalog entry. When you specify the in-hservice parameter, the object specified by OLE-object is changed to the object stored in the HSERVICE entry referenced by the in-hservice parameter.

If you use the _update method without specifying in-hservice, the object's contents are updated with the current OLE object source. This is useful for manually updating a linked object.

Example

In this example, the object stored in OBJ1 is replaced by the SASUSER.EXAMPLES.SOUND1.HSERVICE object:

call notify('obj1','_update_','sasuser.examples.
             sound1.hservice');
