Passing paramteres to forms

attardc

I'm using Navision 4 SP 1, Is it possible to pass a parameter (just by value) to a form, or vice versa?

any help appreciated!

thanks

Hi attardc.

I've done this by creating a function on the form that takes the field(or record).

Then I create a variable of the form on the a different form that I am using to create the parameter.

I pass the parameter to the form and then I run the form (usually modal).

You can also use the form variable after the form is run to get data back from the form...

//Clear the form
Clear(FormVariable);

//Set the parameter
FormVariable(PassParameter);
FormVariable.Runmodal;

if you wanted to check for a response on the form, you might be able to use something like

OK := FormVariable.RUNMODAL = ACTION::Yes;
if OK then
...do something

Hope this helps.

I should have thought of that link Luc... It's where I learned it
