TableNo of current table?

redStripe

Hello,
I hope someone can help me...
I have a little code in some tables that should give
the number of the current table to a codeunit.
Is there a special command for the current tableno.?
thanks.

No there isn't. But with a little trick you can get it.
Put the record in a recordreference. In the recordreference, there is a property "Number" that gives you the object ID.

Or just put DATABASE::"My Table". This returns an integer.

Or make a small function that searches in the object table with the TABLENAME.

@kriki: but recref and rec is a different datatype.
recref := rec doesn't work

how can i put a rec in a recref?

Marije_Brummel

You can use

RecRef.GETTABLE(rec);

redStripe

thanks. it's working :-)

But this is quite slow because there is no good index on tablename.

Correct. I just thought of it reading this and wanted to share with the world


Used to do this prior to recref stuff...
