Animating Query Properties with an OLE Object

To animate a query property with an OLE object:

  1. In the iFIX WorkSpace, insert and configure a VisiconX Data Control.
  2. Create a query for the VisiconX Data Control, using the SQL Wizard and a query property (QP) in the Row Filter comparison expression.
  3. Insert a Grid Control and animate it, selecting the Data Control as the animation data source.
  4. Insert an OLE object. If necessary, edit the script for the change event.
  5. Animate the query property in the Data Control.
  6. Select the OLE object and its property as the animation data source for the query property. Select Object for Data Conversion.
  7. Switch to Run mode. Select a value in the OLE object. The Grid Control displays the data filtered by the OLE object value.
