Hi all,

Want to execute a method if a field is blank previously but now entered with a new value.

And that new value is used in that method.

How can i do this and on which method of the table i should write the code to do this.

Thanks and regards

Hi Siddhant Singh,

As mentioned here you need to override modifiedField field on the table level and add your logic there, if you want to check that field was blank before you can this.orig() nuxulu.com/.../Understanding_modifedField_Table_method_in_DAX_2012.html

I hope I understood you correctly

you can use the modifiedField method to do this

you can use switch case or if statment to check which field exactly changed

make sure that the super method is before the new code to get the new value of the modified field

public void modifiedField(fieldId _fieldId)

{

super(_fieldId);

switch(_fieldId)

{

case fieldnum(MyTable, custAccount):

this.CurrencyCode="";

break;

default:

}

}
