Posted on by 121
Hello Experts,
 
I have one requirement to add new method on unbounded form string control in out of box form. I have added new unbounded string field in standard form and I want to write new method on this control. I have created a extension class for this control and wrote new method, but when I am calling this method from another form I am getting error that /FormStringControl doesn't have '' this method/.
 
Basically I created a new lookup form and I want to update calling form string control. Please suggest if new method needs to be register in init()  like we does for jumpRef or lookup method. or is there any other way to do it. Thanks!
