Ventana software support forum

Hi
I am new to vensim and sable. I am designing an interface in sable and I have added a button and an edit box. What i want to do is that I want to enter the run name in the edit box and when i click on the button, the simulation is run and the text in the edit box is saved as the run name.

I also want to be able to save more than one run name.
I want to be able to view the number of runs (dataset) so that I can remove some later.

Thanks

You cannot actually do that. But if you create a button with the venapp command
SIMULATE>RUNNAME|?

that will allow you to select the runname.

Now in a static text box, enter the text @runname@ it it will display what you have chosen as the run name.

Hope this helps.

Tony.

great that works
thanks

Hello,

is this possible now?
I have seen some Sable Projects were do you write the Runname in a EditBox.

Kind regards

There is not a straightforward way to type a name into an editbox.

Do you have an example of a project where it is done?

Sorry, i mixed up something. It was a Modell written with VENAPP.

But.. how i can open a Dialogscreen to edit Runname (the VDF File were it saved)?. I have seen this in Modell called "C-Roads"

Again, thanks for help!

Does SIMULATE>RUNNAME|? do what you need? It displays the standard windows file open dialog.
