Need an event in C# that refreshes grid prior to code being called using GP

Posted on by Richard Wheeler 75,730

I have a C# application that creates a class library that gets included into GP. Many of the screens are wrapped around various distribution windows. I proceed through these windows as you can see in the included code. An issue that has come up is that if a user changes a value on a distribution line but does not move off that line when the event fires that brings up my code, the value read on the line is the old value. Is there some event I can use in my code to refresh the grid prior to my code firing?

    Hi Richard

    You would need to use passthrough Dexterity to pull the focus. Or use the Visual Studio Integration Toolkit helper functions, which is web client compatible.

    Dexterity command: Window_PullFocus()

    Using the Dynamics.Application for passthrough does not work on web client.

    You could try using VST commands to move focus to the save button but it might not do what you need.

    Regards

    David

    Thanks Andrea, these descriptions concern me. In my case, a distribution grid will be displayed with distributions so there are times that no database values are on the lines. Then the user comes along and enters a GL account but does not leave the line. I am hoping the "Keep Changes" setting is what I seek.

    Hi Richard,

    Have you looked at using something like the Refresh method?

    Here's a link to a C# example of this:

    docs.microsoft.com/.../system.data.linq.refreshmode

    I'm definitely not a C# expert, but I hope this helps and that others in the community have some suggestions for you.

    Thanks Richard,
