Hi David,

It may be that the PowerServer conversion into JavaScript cannot handle the pointer nature of Message.LongParm when used with "address" format.

I read through PowerServer's help file. Format = "address" is *NOT* part of the formats described explicitly. See PowerServer 2017 R2 (PB Edition) Help > Supported PB Features for PowerServer Mobile > Functions > System Functions > Supported Functions > Data Type Checking and Conversion for description of supported string formats.

Could there be some setting on the appeon web tool kit that I don't have on when I convert?

As an example ....  Message.LongParm = 99 in the sender and then use an OpenWithParm ( ) command or Object.Trigger Event xxxx to fire the receiver and have it read the Longparm value.



Note that numbers are passed in DoubleParm not LongParm.

I think you are missing his point. He is using the String function's "address" option to return a string from a pointer.
