If (pVal.FormUID = "Form502") And (oForm.Mode = SAPbouiCOM.BoFormMode.fm_ADD_MODE) Then

oForm.Items.Item("7").Click(SAPbouiCOM.BoCellClickType.ct_Regular)

End If

Hello Shenaz,

When you create the form reference, rather than hardcoding the Form UID, make it unique through variables, etc. I believe there's a way to determine how many instances of a form type are open, so you could just add one to that value and append it to the Form UID. Other manual systems could work, as well.

Hi Shenaz,

Try the following code:

If (pVal.FormTypeEx = "Form502") And (oForm.Mode = SAPbouiCOM.BoFormMode.fm_ADD_MODE) Then

   oForm.Items.Item("7").Click()

End If

If you are opening multiple instances of a form, then you need to trap your event via the FormTypeEx property, not the FormUID.
