Form Mode Change Event

[Former Member]

Hi,

Is there any way to capture form's mode change? (eg: from OK to UPDATE...)

Thanks

Angel,

In the SAP Business One SDK Help Center, did you look at the "AffectsFormMode Property".

Edward,

I'm looking for a simple solution to catch all form (including system forms) mode changes (not only from OK to UPDATE), is possible with "AffectsFormMode Property"?

I've read that catch FIND mode change must be done in a different way (something about menu events).

Thanks

Hi,

You can catch the menu event from the buttons (add, find etc).

But Catching events from buttons (add, find, etc) I can´t know when the form has changed form OK_mode to UPDATE_mode.

Hi Mario,

you could try the keypressed event and check the form mode.

As far as I've tested (I'm developing it by now) you must coordinate some pieces:

1) First, your form must set AutoManaged="1" attribute

2) Second, every item which you decide changes your form status must set AffectsFormMode="1" attribute (for example, set to "1" for edittext, but "0" to folders because if you click a folder item it doesn't affect your data)

3) capture the itemevent and menuevent of this form, and check then form's mode property

I hope it helps, greetings
