Research method on X++ forms

In AX2009 if you call the research() method on a form passing true, the cursor position within a grid should be retained. However, this is true only if the query created by the form uses inner joins. Any outer joins, aggregations, temp tables, etc. cause the cursor to go to either the first or last record (depending upon the StartPosition property for that data source). In 2009 if you want to keep the cursor position and use joins other than inner joins you have to keep track of the cursor position. Code like the following will do this:

int pos;
super();
pos = salesQuotationTable_ds.getPosition();
salesQuotationTable_ds.research();
salesQuotationTable_ds.setPosition(pos);

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();     ... }
