How to use "Like" operator in the QueryBuildRange.Value

To make something as the "LIKE" operator in a query, you should just assign a value to the queryRange including a wildcard.

The query framework will then change the statement into a LIKE statement. If the value does not contain a wildchard the query framework will change the statement to ==.
Example:
static void QueryBuildRange_Like(Args _args)
{
    Query                   query = new Query();
    QueryRun                queryRun;
    QueryBuildDataSource    queryDataSource;
    QueryBuildRange         queryRange;
    CustTable               custTable;
    ;

queryDataSource = query.addDataSource(tablenum(CustTable));
queryRange = queryDataSource.addRange(fieldnum(CustTable, Name));
 
    queryRange.value('The*');
 
    queryRun = new QueryRun(query);
    while (queryRun.next())
    {
        custTable = queryRun.get(tablenum(CustTable));
        info (custTable.Name);
    }
}

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();     ... }

What does this mean: "The form datasource query object does not support changing its AllowCrossCompany property after the form has executed the query."?

I have made a form with datasources vendtable and vendtrans. Inside vendtable_ds.executequery() looks like this: QueryBuildDataSource queryBuildDatasource ,queryBDS_VendTrans_Invoice; ; queryBuildDatasource = this.query().dataSourceTable(tablenum(vendtable)); queryBDS_VendTrans_Invoice = this.query().dataSourceTable(tablenum(vendtrans)); if (curext() == "MASTERCOMP") { this.query().allowCrossCompany(true); } else { this.query().allowCrossCompany(false); } //FilterVendorName = stringedit control on form if (FilterVendorName.text()) { queryBuildDatasource.addRange(fieldNum(VendTable,Name)).value(strfmt("*%1*", FilterVendorName.text())); } else { queryBuildDatasource.clearRange(fieldNum(VendTable,Name)); } //FilterInvoiceNumber = stringedit control on form if (FilterInvoiceNumber.valueStr() == "") { queryBDS_VendTrans_Invoice.enabled(false); } else { queryBDS_VendTrans_Invoice.enabled(true); queryBDS_VendTrans_In...
