I want to display a message at the start of an ADD2 transaction under certain circumstances.

I've tried setting $this->messages[] in both the initialise() and getinitialData() methods but the message is not displayed.

Do I need to do this in another method?

What version of Radicore are you using? The latest version definitely contains code to extract messages just before the screen is displayed.

I'm definitely using 1.48 now. Messages seem to work ok in the other places I'm using them but not in this case.

I have just done a test by creating a message in the _cm_getInitialData() method, and it is definitely appearing. Can you step through with your debugger to see what is happening? Any messages should be extracted at line 170.

Think I have found the problem...

When I was reading the documentation I noted that you can use $messages (string) for a single message and $messages[] (array) for multiple messages. However, originally I forgot to use $this-> so of course it didn't work when I tried either the string or the array structures.

When I realised my mistake not using $this-> I only used the string structure $this->messages, and this still doesn't work.
Using the array structure $this->messages[] does work.

That's my mistake Embarassed

I shall change all my page controllers to use $dbobject->getMessages() instead of $dbobject->messages as this will allow $this->messages to be either a string or an array.
