Hello! Friends, can you some help me? 🙂
Next problem: we have big project in ClearSCADA. Can we change AOI in all project on custom created? May exist script?
thanks in advance!
P.S. Sorry for my English._**

AWoodland:
You can manipulate the AOI as anormal property, but I'm not aware of any pre-canned feature you could re-use

You do mean Area Of Interest right?
For some reason, everytime I read this I think of Add-On Instruction (ala Allen Bradley RSLogix 5000).

As Adam said, this is quite easy to change via the Automation Interface or the .NET API.
So you can embed it very easily within an Excel spreadsheet for mass editing.

You could even use the Bulk Edit Tool to do this (although I haven't used the Bulk Edit Tool much, so I may well be wrong) if you weren't into Excel VBA coding.

can 'areaofinterestid' be changed via script. ie.

_sub areaofinterests
set rs = server.query("SELECT FULLNAME FROM CADVOPCANALOG
recs = rs.rows
for i = 0 to rs.rowcount - 1
on error resume next
call server.setopcvalue(recs(i,0) & ".AreaOfInterestId", 123 )
next
on error goto 0
end sub_
