Element5 WebMIS
This is a very scaled down version of an application in use at Element5 / ShareIt! You
can read more about how IntraWeb is used in the Element5 case study.
What is WebMIS?
WebMIS is a simple web-based report generator, a flexible database front end.
WebMIS works with Oracle and any ADO data source such as MS SQL Server or
Access. This is a demo version with reduced functionality. Its sole purpose is
to demonstrate the capabilities of IntraWeb.
Installation
- You must have ADO installed. Most versions of Windows now have this
installed.
- Unzip to c:\webmis - If you put it in a different directory you must alter
the webmis.ini file.
- Run WebMIS.exe.
- Press F9. Note: Screens are designed for 1024x768 or larger.
- Choose a query on the left menu, set filter criteria, and view the
result in a table or diagram. New views can be added by editing the included
files. Just a very small sampling is included.
Configuration
This demo comes with a small Access test database, iwdemo.mdb. In order to
connect to your own database, modify the [Logon] section in WebMIS.ini.
Then you'll have to introduce your own SQL queries. The [Installation]
section in WebMIS.ini determines where WebMIS looks for its query files. WebMIS
can easily display and process hundreds of query files. You may organize them in
a tree structure.
A query file starts with a SELECT statement. The statement may contain
parameters. You may specify the possible values of these parameters in the
[Lookup] section. Legal parameter types are :STR_ (string), :NUM_ (numeric),
:DAT_ (date), and :DBO_ (database object). WebMIS skips lines holding optional
parameters if the user leaves them empty.
Deinstallation
WebMIS won't tamper with your machine. No registry modifications, no temp
files, nothing. No setup necessary. To remove WebMIS, simply delete its
directory.
