Hi Tracy,

as an additional suggestion, I've found PBSearch to be an invaluable tool when it comes to looking for stuff in large PB applications. It makes full-text searches and looking for classes in huge PBL list very easy.

Hi Tracy;

   Any standard object class pointer would of type "PowerObject" and then you would need to cast the ponter to use it. However, you could just use DataWindow (control) to "lock in" the type.

FWIW: In my STD framework I just one structure with one element as an array of Any[]. That allows me to pass any standard datatype and/or any object pointer in that one simple structure definition. You can also add as many parameters dynamically to the structure at runtime as well. So it's super simple and totally flexible.  ;-)

Hi, Tracy - 

I assume you have a LOT of pbl's to examine!

If you have a window that you can temporarily add a command button to, place the following script in its Clicked event (substitute the proper structure object name in the "FindClassDefinition" PowerScript function call, of course):

ClassDefinition lcd

lcd = FindClassDefinition("s_parms")
If IsValid(lcd) Then
   MessageBox("Found it!","It resides in: "+lcd.LibraryName)
Else
   MessageBox("Rats!","Can't find it.")
End If

This form of the FindClassDefinition function searches all of the libraries in the current target's library list. You can alternatively supply an optional list of libraries to be examined (refer to PB Help).
