Description

psInvokingObject is a web property that contains the name of object that invoked the prompt list. You will rarely use this. This is WebSet automatically by the prompt list and should not be changed. If you need to work with an invoking object, you will want to work with an invoking object handle, which is obtained by calling GetInvokingObject. GetInvokingObject does the work of converting psInvokingObject to a useful object handle.

Note that the web packages avoid using object and message handles in web properties, as this is not secure. Instead, they use string names. We recommend you do the same.

About Web Properties

Each web property maintains two values: The regular property value is set during object creation and should not be changed during the lifetime of that object. To access that value, use the standard property Get and Set syntax.

The web property value is the local value stored at each client. This is synchronized to the client's local value whenever a server call is being processed. To access the web property value, use the WebGet and WebSet syntax above instead of the standard Get and Set syntax.
