Does any one have sample vb api code that loads a string of data that contains 1 or more gifts and create gift records for a consituent(s) ?

Thank You

David

Have you any experience with the FormatField function ?
It has the fmtENCRYPTED and fmtENCRYPTED_DES as EFormatDescriptors constants.

I’m trying to encrypt the account no in the customwhereclause string.

Eric

Thank you for your quick reply.
As of version 7.81 the account numbers are encrypted in the db. Using the CustomWhereClause queries the raw data. Passing clear text as criteria doesn’t return any records.

Is there a way to encrypt the clear text on the fly so the account number passed in the whereclause matches the raw (encrypted) data in the table ?

Or is there an other way to filter constituents using the account no?

Eric

You are using the wrong filter object for constituents. You need to use the CRecordsFilter object. The CFinRelFilter is used when you want to filter a collection of bank relationship records i.e. objects of type CFinancials2. However if you bring up the CRecordsFilter you will not find bank account number there.

What you are going to probably have to do is to use a custom where clause something like this:

Dim oRECS As CRecords = New CRecords
sql = ” ID IN (SELECT CONSTIT_ID FROM CONSTITUENT_BANK WHERE ACCOUNT_NO_RAW = ‘” & myBankAccountNumber & “‘”
oRECS.Init(oCONN.SessionContext, TopViewFilter_Record.tvf_record_CustomWhereClause, sql)

This assumes that the account number does not contain any formatting just numbers otherwise you can use the ACCOUNT_NO field instead.

I’m new to the RE API and I’m realy stuck here:

I would like to filter constituents. The criteria is the bank account (as in the search screen).
This is what I have:

————
Dim oRECS As CRecords = New CRecords
oRECS.Init(oCONN.SessionContext, TopViewFilter_Record.tvf_record_UseFilterObject)
Dim oCONTS As IBBRecords2 = oRECS
Dim oFLT As CFinRelFilter = oCONTS.FilterObject
With oFLT
— filter criteria should come here, but the only property available is:
.ExcludeIDs
End With

————–

Thanks in advance.
