Howto display info on a card form from different sourcetable

mgerhartz

Hi,

is it possible to display information in textboxes on a card form which have a different source table as the source table from the form. For example, I want to display information from the contact table on a Cardform which has the table "structure" as source table. Is it possible to display these informations through a record variable?

Thanks for your help!

You can connect the editbox to any variable you define on the form. It can be for example another record, function result etc., but you need to get correct record into the variable when Rec changed, if you want to edit the record, you need to make the change manually (through C/AL code) etc...

Probably the best, most usable way is to have a tabcontrol at the bottom half of the form with each tab having a subform, which points to a linked table. For example, I often display the Item card as having a tabcontrol in the bottom, with the first tab showing variants, the second bar codes (item cross-reference), the third sales prices... very usable. Each is usually linked as Item No. in the subtable = No. in the Item table.
