Hi All,

I want to know if there is a way to determine the child tags of an alarm group tag.

For example, I may have an SQC_Alarm called Area1.Group1.Alarm1. The exdesc for this tag is Area1.Group1 (referring to the base tag that groups together this alarm and several other alarms). Therefore, using the exdesc attribute I can determine the parent tag for the alarm. What I would like is to determine the child tag for the parent alarm using VBA, so I can set up Processbooks that drill down through several levels of alarm groups.

I can view the tree structure for the alarm groups easily using SDK > Alarm Groups, but this doesn't help me create dynamic processbook pages that can drill down through this structure, without having every tag preconfigured on the page somehow.

Regards,
Graeme.
