Page (subform) not filtering properly

mtlmonk

Hi,

I've got a page with a subform in it where I need to pass custom filters, rather than using the SubPageLink property on the page.

However, when inside the subform, I don't see any filter set on Rec variable so the subform just shows all comments found in the table it is linked to.

OrderComment.SETRANGE("Contract No.","No.");
OrderComment.SETFILTER("Change Order No.","Change Order No.");
CurrPage.CommentsSubForm.PAGE.SETTABLEVIEW(OrderComment);
CurrPage.CommentsSubForm.PAGE.UPDATE;

OrderComment is a global variable, not temporary one

It works well under Nav2013R2 but not in 2016

follow https://msdn.microsoft.com/de-de/library/dd355387(v=nav.90).aspx

Remark: SETTABLEVIEW is not supported for setting views on subpages from code on table headers. For example, you cannot set a table view on the SalesOrder subpage from the SalesHeader.

What's weird, same code works in 2013R2

create a function in subpage with VAR parameter OrderComment, in that function read filter using getfilter(s), set that filter using setfilter(s) to rec.
call that function before subpage.update.

Tried that...

function xyz(var ordercomment)
rec.copyfilters(ordercomment);

Didn't work.
