Change Dynamics Window Name with VBA

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by U079310 405

Looking for a method to change the displayed window/form name in Dynamics using VBA if possible.   Have tried changing the value of field CAPTION but get an object not available error.   If cannot be changed with VBA is there another suggeted method ?

 Thanks, Rick

    Well, it's that simple. Use Modifier to rename the Window Title. Once done, give access to the "Modified" form in the "Alternate/Modified Forms and Reports".

    Hi,

    You can definitely change it with VBA.

    You are getting the 'object not available' error because the window is not open at the time you assigned the property.

    To get around it you can add this line to the Window_AfterActivate() event:

    Caption=<title>

    Where <title> is the title of the window you desire.

    Thanks so much for your reply.  Yes I was running my .caption code in the wrong place.  It now works fine.
