Hi all!

I need to integrate the result of a query into a new widget.
What's the best practice to do this? There is nothing in edn!?

This is what I did, but I think I am missing something here:

Edit MacroWidgetsCustom.txt and add somthing like:

CustomerAnniversaries {[<%LoadScript("serverscripts/Global.js")%>                                     
    <%RunQuery(id="CustomerAnniversaries", store="59", SQL="exec  ADMINALS.CUSTOM_CONT_ANNIVERSARIES :p1;", Param1="%%GetUserKey()")%>
    <%GetDataGrid(query="CustomerAnniversaries", columndefs="GridColumns.txt", entity="CONT", noheader=true, count=-1, columns="SampleColumn1,SampleColumn2,SampleColumn3,SampleColumn4")%>
]}

Then edit:MacroDashBoardCustom.txt and add

<%Macro("WidgetTemplate59", $MACRO$="TodayWidget", $COLLAPSE$="0")%>

ContainerWidgetsDefault3 {[
<%Macro("WidgetTemplate59", $MACRO$="TodayWidget", $COLLAPSE$="0")%>
]}

"Refresh Settings" in Admin....

Bute the Widget won't show up the the widget list ...
What is wrong here?

Thank you
Tim
