i think you miss some basic parts on how to work with the SwitchScripter

If you want to have Metadata in SwitchScripter to fiddle around with you need to declare it in the Properties Pane:

http://www.enfocus.com/manuals/Develope ... _pane.html

declare the "Order" metadata and add an XML as you see it coming out of the entry point in Switch (export it with "Export Metadata")

I know it's a bit hidden but that's where you find what you need

Hi Torsten,

Thank you for not giving up on me:)

I am a bit on and off these days as we have holidays here.

Indeed I saw this option and used it.

To be sure:

You have to set the backing file for each tag you define there, right?

I have been giving a training all week and hence was not active on the forum, but tell me, Ariel, why on earth would you want to move values from metadata to private data?

Hi Freddy,

Good to have you back:)

1. Private data is easier to access

2. I want to write some general purpose routines which shall trust on some private data entries

3. Unfortunately, I have to cope with Hebrew - all field tags are in hebrew (and also the values which is less problematic). I may add an English identifier in order to avoid encoding issues.

Thank you Freddy,

Ariel
