ObjectID (integer) of a form

matahari

How can I get the object ID (integer) of a form? Form.OBJECTID just returns a string. Is this possible?

You need to write some C/AL Code:

fctGetObjectID(ptxtObjectID : Text[250]) : Integer

EVALUATE(lintValue,COPYSTR(ptxtObjectID,STRPOS(ptxtObjectID,' ') + 1,99));
EXIT(lintValue);

And use it like this:

MESSAGE (FORMAT(fctGetObjectID(CurrForm.OBJECTID(FALSE))));

Making a integer of a string and formatting it for a message Luc?

Be carefull the OBJECTID does not work when running from the object designer.
