Any books on C/AL?

Cannikin

Hey hey! Anyone know of any kind of book written about C/AL? It'd be so nice to be able to go to Barnes & Nobel and pick up a C/AL book or two to learn this language.

I feel like that's my biggest roadblock to doing more complicated things with Navision right now -- I know how I *should* be able to do things based on programming concepts that I'm familiar with, I'm just not fluent in the right language yet.

hi,

There are many pdf doc for Navision Financials. On the DEMO CD's too.
You can find there a chapter about the "Applications and designers guide..." topic.

it is enough for the beginning

No books, just PDF on the product CD.

All you really need to learn is syntax... If you know one language you know them all basically.

Cannikin,

Do not forget to read the online C/Side Reference Guide in Navision's Help menu.

Basically you should try to understand the special functions of Navision, ie:- SETRANGE, SETFILTERS, CALCSUMS, FIND, etc.

Follow also the examples in Application Developers Guide.PDF in the installation CD.

You should be fine from there.

Why are so many terminologies in Navision? :shock:
I could understand what are differences about
C/Side
C/Al
C/Front

Anyone could explain them to me?

Thank you very much.

C/Side = Client/Server Integrated Development Environment. This is the only abbreviation that actually means something for all letters
C/Al = C/ Application Language. They just added the C/ so it woulf look the same as C/SIDE
C/Front = doesn't mean anything, but is a set of DLL's to access Navision from outside Navision
