Move unlicensed objects

AK

Ever wanted to change or look at objects your don't have a design license for? Just move them in a licensed area:

-In the object designer mark the object so it gets a blue backround (shift+space)
-press ctrl+c
-press ctrl+v
-confirm the two error messages
-without leaving the line, change the ID to one you have access to
-move the cursor to another line

This works up to version 3.7, in 4.0 this seems to be fixed.

It still works. Just move to an object to which you have access.

Really? I've tested it with 4.0 SP2, but I just get the "You don't have permissions to create..." dialog. After confirming this, nothing happens.

Yes, it works.
What do I do:
-I select a form I don't have access to (record becomes blue) the record.
-CTRL-C
-I position on a form I have access to (e.g. 50000)
-CTRL-V
-=> error:OBject already exists. =>I hit OK => error:form could not be pasted => I hit OK => Navision inserts the form with the old ID and Name. I then change them and leave the record.

Now I got it - thanks!
