Hi,

Anyone knows if it is possible to change the caption of a column heading (in a normal tubular form) dinamically, for example when the form is opened?

Thanks

    It is possible, but it depends on what functionality you need.
    Look at the shortcutdimension fields on (for example) sales line... .
    If you work with the "captionclass" property and see how codeunit 1 handles this ... you might find what you're looking for.

    Yes, and it's quite reliable, I found. I have a customization where when you select METER as sales unit of measure on the sales line the unit price caption is changed to "METER Price" etc. Works very well.

    Yes, you can. I've found a customization too, where they are edited the codeunit 1 where a function is check the Language and get the correct translated caption from a Caption table that contains the translates. ... in short. :?

    I'm afraid that's not useful for me, I need to populate the headers with dates, that depend on what the user introduces in a textbox in the form.
    (It's a form working as the Aged debtor report)

    I think the only way of doing it is using a matrix form instead of a normal tabular form.

    After searching though the forum, I found the same problem faced by Alisha here.

    I also have to create a report where the header should populate with date and day according to the filter specified.
