IA Process Developer

In our process we want to launch a DB lookup dialog that takes one of the values they entered in IA Index and gets a list of possible matches from our external Oracle Database. When they pick one from the list we want to finish indexing the document in Input Accel.

All of this is pretty straight forward to do outside of Process Developer, but we have not found a solution within it.

1) Can reference ADO/MDAC
2) Can't even reference a custom helper object that would do all of it for us.
3) Used late binding and got it sort of working, but it looks as though the modules do not trigger it on the user's (IAIndex) PC but on the IA server.

How would one do this? Do we need to acutally create our own module that does all that IAIndex does, plus this extra little bit? If so is there a SDK for developing these modules?

Unfortunately, ODBC connections are not supported within process developer. My suggestion is that if you want to do this in IA Index is to create your own dll to connect to the db and do the lookup and call your dll within IA Index using the Aux function (more info if you go to the Index help and do a search on "customized dll"). Is this what you're looking for?
