scan, find and open form

dspasov

Helo colleagues,
I can not figure out following problem:
I have custome made picking card form, based on "Warehouse Activity Line" table and wich is running on mobile scanners.One of the fields is "Item No.".I`d like to proceed if the picker scan some item barcode and if this item exists in picking card to init some code to open a scanning form.
Something like that:
if item was found then
scanform.run
else
message('There is no such item in the list')

Now i do it by positioning on the row and pushing button.My desire is to skip this handle operation by scanning.

Thanks in advance!

OnValidate of the Item No field:

IF Item.GET("item no.") THEN BEGIN
CLEAR(frmScan);
frmScan.RUNMODAL;
END ELSE
MESSAGE(STRSUBSTNO('Item %1 does not exist.',"Item No."));

Hi awarn,
I can`t fire OnValidate triger coz the field "Item No." is not editable.
Imagine we have opened form 31 Item List.We scan item barcode.The item exists and Navision gain focus on it.
i`d like to start scanform especialy on this moment.

Whatever the 'event' is that enters the item number, whatever field you are no when you scan, then that is the event to put the code into.

OnValidate
This trigger fires when the user leaves the control after changing the data.

I don`t change the data.Just find it.

Right - so OnValidate that is where you write the code.
