If you are on AX version earlier than AX 2012, you should look into the controlMethodOverload examples on the web.

For example, this project (kashperuk.blogspot.dk/.../3-dialog-extensions.html) shows how you can override the lookup method - modified is pretty much the same, just a different method name and all.

Note the suggestion in the blog post above about using a separate AOT form instead of the dialog, keeping the code and design cleaner.

If you are on AX 2012, there is a new method "registerOverrideMethod", which you can call on the DialogField, specifying a method that should be used as the lookup/modified method event handler.

You probably mean RunBase or RunBaseBatch dialog. If yes, use registerOverrideMethod on dialog control.

The operation of dialogSelectCtrl() method is very different. The dialogSelectCtrl method only runs when you "select" a field, not when you modify it's value. The method is invoked when You hit the field, but after that You can modify the value 1000 times, it not invokes the dialogSelectCtrl method again.

The registerOverrideMethod is available from AX2012 only.

You can find the solution here for AX2009:
