    When installing LSO 10 via Click-Once on a Win 7 64-bit computer, is the 32-bit or 64-bit version installed?  Thanks.

      It is a 64 bit.

        Is there anyway to force it to install the 32-bit version on a 64-bit OS?

          Unfortunately not.

            Do you know where I can find the documentation that specifically states this?  I have a Third Party app that works only with the 32-bit version of LSO.  Thanks.

              I am guessing the problem has with Internet Explorer plugins to do (thats the only place where I have seen it is a problem with running in 64 bit mode). This is a well known issue and the install guide states that only plug-ins that supports 64-bit mode in Internet Explorer will work. The following section is copied from the Software requirements section in the Smart Office install guide.

              "Only web browser plug-ins that
              support 64-bit mode in Internet
              Explorer will work in Lawson Smart
              Office when running on 64-bit."

                The Third Party App I’m trying to integrate with is Application Enabler (AE) from Hyland Software. It only works with 32-bit apps. It essentially does a screen scrape of a defined location on the AP20.1 form in order to automatically retrieve a document without having to leave LSO. The user can just Ctrl+Left Click the PO or Invoice fields and the voila, the document pops up. I got it to work with LSO in Win XP as well as Win 7 32-bit, but no success with Win 7 64-bit thus far.

                  Have you tried enabling OnBase via their script header option instead of AE? Would also allow you to display a button documents are found related to key fields/metadata on the form. This what we planned to do .. of course we haven't done so yet. But this would potentially be an option versus AE.

                    Since we have AE and it's pretty easily configured, I thought I would take that route first.  But if it can't be done, then we'll have to find some other way to do easily pop a document back.  Can you provide more detail about the script header option?  Thanks.

                      Absolutely makes sense. Just mentioning another route with potential. Your Hyland rep or tech resource should be able to assist with providing details on the scripted header option .. along with samples and documentation. As I said, we haven't done it yet. This functionality was one our main drivers for selecting Hyland as it allows for tighter integration with Lawson.

                        Ahh...are you referring to the Hyland Lawson S3 Integration?

                          You sound like you have some insights. Do share.

                            Sort of…I’ve seen demos of Hyland’s S3 Integration with Lawson and you’re right, it’s pretty slick.  Unfortunately, we don’t have that product.  We have Hyland’s EIS for a future Lawson implementation, but as a quick win, I wanted a way for the AP users to retrieve docs without having to leave LSO.  I’m an OnBase System Admin so this Lawson stuff is all NEW to me

                              They wouldn't need to leave LSO. The script can be put in the header of LSO forms as well. They could quickly see if documents are associated with the data in the form and would be presented with an option to view them if there is. Check with Hyland.

                                We have Imagenow links on the LSO forms to pull data from our imaging system directly from the form. You use the LSO scripting to create the links on the forms. It works well and sounds like exactly what you are trying to do. There is some details about LSO scripting on the S3 Tech blog from Lawson. I don't know the coding to the Hyland software but it should be close to what we use so if you need more info. Let me know.

                                  Mark, Perceptive ImageNow was our other option and a very sound choice. Sounds like you have it working very similar to how we intend to integrate Hyland OnBase. -Jim

                                      I manage development for Hyland's Application Enabler.
                                      Out of the hundreds of applications that OnBase integrates with, Lawson LSO is the first enterprise software to adopt 64 bit for its client side component. 
                                      Hyland Software as Infor Lawson partner is committed to serve our common customers.  For this reason, we are actively expanding Application Enabler to support 64bit applications.
                                      We already have an alternative for you to try.   Please contact your first line of support at Hyland.
