    You must take help from a developer to achieve your desired output. :smile:

    Kamkpt,

    This Code will never work

    "Unit Cost".VISIBLE :false;

    If its classic client then you need to write code on the form like this.

    CurrForm."Unit Cost".VISIBLE(FALSE);


    Thanks

    In RTC in 2009 and in 2013 and later, the VISIBLE property can be controlled by a variable:

    1. Open the page in the Development Environment
    2. Create a global variable, type Boolean, e.g. UnitCostHidden
    3. Select the "Unit Cost" field and view the Properties
    4. In the "Visible" property, insert the name of your new variable preceded by NOT, e.g. NOT UnitCostHidden

    Since the default of a Boolean variable is FALSE, the default value will be TRUE (i.e. NOT (False)), so the default of the field will be visible.

    Then, in your code:
    ====================
    if UserId = 'X' then
    UnitCostHidden := TRUE;
    ====================

    Now, when the field is displayed, the VISIBLE property will be (NOT (True)) = FALSE, so the field will be hidden.

    Your code to set the UnitCostHidden should be in the OnAfterGetCurrRecord OnOpenPage trigger.

    Good luck!

    Regarding the solution provided by @rsaritzky - you'll also need to make sure that you set the IncludeInDataset property to Yes on your Boolean variable (UnitCostHidden)

    usersetup.GET(USERID);
    IF usersetup."Hide Unit Cost" THEN
    UnitCostHidden := TRUE;

    Hi Kishorm,

    Thank you for pointing this out - it is something I forgot to point out.

    KMK,

    I am sorry for giving you a little incorrect information. Being pretty sure that this should work, I tested it myself, and you are correct - it does not work.

    You must put the check for the UserID's permissions in the OnOpenPage trigger, NOT the OnafterGetRecord or OnAfterGetCurrRecord trigger. If you put it there, it should work. I will try to find an MSDN reference on when this property for the field is evaluated.

    OK, here's the full explanation according to MSDN:

    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd355373(v=nav.90).aspx

    It says (among other things):

    1. Using a variable for field and action controls requires that the variable be resolved by the OnInit Trigger or OnOpenPage Trigger.

    2. The dynamic options are only possible for group and part controls.

    SO, if you have a need to dynamically change the hidden property on a field as you move from record-to-record, you need to put that field into a group on the page, then assign the "hidden" variable to the group. I test this and it then works if you put the setting of the hidden variable in the OnAfterGetRecord or OnAfterGetCurrRecord trigger.

    In your case, since the hidden property is based on the User, you can put your code in the OnOpenPage trigger and it should work for you.

    Once again, I apologize for misleading you a bit. I DID try <grin>.
