How do I suppress or modify the Delete confirmation message when the dustbin/trashcan button is clicked (see example below)?

In this case it's my custom page and table. I am handling the OnDeleteRecordEvent. This is working fine except I now get two confirmation dialogs. The one above, and my custom one below. I either want to suppress the first/default one, or move the code that drives the second one in to a handler for the first one.

I tried the Event Recorder but it didn't show any useful information.
I thought of disabling the dustbin/trashcan button with DeleteAllowed = false; and then adding my own Delete Action on the menu, but that seems a bit awkward? Is there a more elegant solution?

RE: How to suppress or modify Delete confirmation message

Thanks so much for posting my question on Twitter. So, the answer, is saying I should go with my awkward solution above, where I disable the dustbin/trashcan button and create my own Delete action. I'm surprised there's no way to customise what happens when the dustbin/trashcan button is clicked, but so be it. Thanks again.

Hi Nick,

I posted you question on Twitter and received this response:

twitter.com/.../1665785496264474624

He is using Delete on OnDeleteRecordEvent that why the he gets confirm twice => 1st std confirm, 2nd custom confirm.

He should add an action to the page with basic code:

If Confirm(MyFancyMsg) then

Rec.Delete(true);

Would that work for you?
