Solved Dynamic LookUpPage

FrAusDo · 2015-12-23

Hi,

I have a problem.

I want to deposit in a tables field A a table ID and B open on the LookUp an Additional Field to the lookup table in the field A.

Is that possible?

Have I made myself clear?

An example. If the field A is a 18 to the lookup Page "Customer List" to be called,

If the field A is a 27 then it should be the Page "Item List".

Does anyone have a solution?

Greeting Frank

You can set that up as a conditional table relationship in the Table Designer, and NAV will automatically use that target table's lookup page.

Hi Daniel,

Thanks, but that is not dynamic enough.
A field can have the IDs of all the tables. The Conditional list would be very long and must be replaced with new fields, if I understand you correctly.

I think you mean so, right ??

Yes that's it. If that doesn't work for you, can you explain what "not dynamic enough" means?

Hi Frank,

You can use recordref and variant variable types to run default pages.

RecRef.OPEN(TableID);
VariantRec := RecRef;
PAGE.RUN(0,VariantRec);

Hi.

I had the same wish and this solution works fine. But one more question: is it possible to get back the selected records from that page?

Thanks for any ideas

I think you cannot do this unless programming in page object. Selection is part of page events and you cannot access these events when you use page.run(modal) function. SelectionFilterManagement codeunit includes examples of generic access to selected rows but as you can already notice there, each seperate table has it's own function.

Howdy, Stranger!
