Changing the language at runtime in X++

We recently had a case where the customer wanted to change the language being used for a given AX user at runtime. The customer had sorted out how to change the language displayed in forms and reports but the buttons on the navigation pane were not getting updated. Here is a way to handle this scenario:
In the setSetup method of the SysUserSetup form within the if clause add the following:
if (infolog.language() != userinfo.language)
{
infolog.language(userinfo.language);
infolog.navPane().loadStartupButtons();
}

Dynamics Axapta: Sales Orders & Business Connector

Well, again folllowing my same idea of writting close to nothing and pasting code, I'll paste in some code to create a sales order from some basic data and the invoice it. I'll try to explain more in the future. AxaptaObject axSalesTable = ax.CreateAxaptaObject("AxSalesTable"); AxaptaRecord rcInventDim = ax.CreateAxaptaRecord("InventDim"); AxaptaRecord rcCustTable = ax.CreateAxaptaRecord("CustTable"); rcCustTable.ExecuteStmt("select * from %1 where %1.AccountNum == '" + MySalesOrderObject.CustAccount + "'"); if (MySalesOrderObject.CurrencyCode.Trim().Length == 0) MySalesOrderObject.CurrencyCode = rcCustTable.get_Field("Currency").ToString().Trim(); string sTaxGroup = rcCustTable.get_Field("taxgroup").ToString().Trim(); //set header level fields axSalesTable.Call("parmSalesName", MySalesOrderObject.SalesName.Trim()); axSalesTable.Call("parmCustAccount", M

Passing values between form and class

Class name is EmplDuplication and Form is EmplTable . void clicked() {    MenuFunction mf;    args args = new Args();    ;     args.record(EmplTable);     mf = new menufunction(identifierstr(EmplDuplication), MenuItemType::Action); mf.run(args); } Meanwhile, in the main() method of the EmplDuplication class, we need to put this Axapta x++ code to get the datasource: static void main(Args args) {     EmplDuplication EmplDuplication; EmplTable localEmplTable; ;     if(args.record().TableId == tablenum(EmplTable)) localEmplTable = args.record();     ... }
