Hi Anand,

i am not sure whether i had understood your problem or not

but if you are trying to validate a UDF then in before action true in validate event

if Pval.itemUid="U_Vendorname") then

'Do some thing

End if

HI

use this code

If pVal.FormTypeEx = "URFORMTYPE" And pVal.BeforeAction = True And pVal.EventType = SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_ITEM_PRESSED And pVal.ItemUID = "URBUTTONUID" Then

If objForm.Items.Item("U_Vendorname").Specific.Value = "" Then

SBO_Application.MessageBox("ERRORMESSAGE")

BubbleEvent = False

End If

End If

If it helps please reward points

i think his problem is he don't know how to access the userdefined fields in the form !

because he can do it with normal fields

anand, try this:

if (appl.Forms.GetFormByTypeAndCount((frm.Type * -1), appl.Forms.ActiveForm.TypeCount).Items.item("U_FIELD").Specific.Value = "xyz" ) then

end if

look in the sdk ui documentation for GetFormByTypeAndCount

the userdefined fields on the side are in a own form with type * -1
