Modifying code on a form

Posted on by brianmaric

Hi, I'm new to 365FO and I need to modify the Look up method of a field on a form.

I believe that this is done through the Datasource->>Field --> Lookup Reference Method.

But I don't see how to access the code from visual studio.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance

One way to customise the lookup is the form handler, this is an example Class > DocuTemplateUploadDialogEventHandlers

If you one the latest platform, then you could use the CoC to extend the Form control lookup method

You refer to it with data source name and field name. For example MyDataSource.MyField = MyValue. How to get the data source depends on your scenario, which we don't know.

This code give me an error: "the parameter profile does not match the original method"

[ExtensionOf(formdatafieldstr(SalesTable,SalesTable,SiteSalesManager))]
Final class NTS_TestDataSource_Extension
{
public void LookupReference()
{

SalesTable SalesTable;
FormDataSource SalesTableDS;
FormDataObject SalesTableDataObject;

SalesTableDataObject = any2Object(this) as FormDataObject;

next LookupReference();

SalesTableDS = SalesTableDataObject.datasource();

}

}

Which line of code gives the error? Does the underlying lookupReference have some parameters? CoC method must have the same parameter profile than the underlying method.

Looks like it takes (FormReferenceControl _formReferenceControl) as an argument
