To use the comms control to launch a new tab in PROIV Aurora, follow these steps:

  1. Register the comms ActiveX control on your system.

  2. Import the control into PROIV via the ActiveX Gallery (See the PROIV Online Documentation, Topic ID 500001 for more information).

  3. Add the control to a Static page in a PROIV Screen Function.

$Param3 = $Content

The following optional parameters are only used in launching PROIV Functions:
