A repost from:
viewtopic.php?f=32&t=39404
This is so someone does not pull their hair out like I just did. I cannot find anywhere in the documentation where this is explained so here it is:
1. Create your custom table
2. Create the drilldown page with SourceTable to your custom table
3. Save the page and REMEMBER THE ID
4. Create a NAV tabular form to the custom table
5. Save the form to have the same ID as step 3
6. Go to the table property on the table you created in step 1
7. Define the DrillDownFormID property on the form you created in step 4
8. Save and test your work.
Apparently, you cannot specify the Page on the DrilldownFormID on the table, but you can specify a page on the DrilldownFormID on the page.
You can delete the form afterwards and it'll still work.

Alex,
shouldn't all these steps be unnecessary if you create the drilldown form, set it up as usual, and then just convert it with the tool?0 -
Yes, but why would you want to create the form when you're developing only in RTC pages?Confessions of a Dynamics NAV Consultant = my blog
