C/AL Editor - How can I edit variable in function header? Blocked for editing?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Member

Big newbie (with experience in VB and SQL) question here: I'm editing some C/AL code on a report. Everything makes sense, but I have a block of code I'm trying to update and that seems locked for editing.  The code looks like this, except the red-font text has a light grey background in my editor window. I want to change the 21 to 22. How can I do it?

 

ProcessRecord(VAR RowData : ARRAY [21] OF Text[250])

CLEAR(SalesLine);
SalesLine.INIT;
SalesLine."Document Type" := SalesHdr."Document Type";
\\etc., etc.

Thanks for your input,

Thomas

    You need to put the cursor inside the ProcessRecord Function > Click View > C/AL Local > Here you will see RowData as Variable  > Select that line > Click Shift + F4 (Properties) > Change Dimensions property Value to 22..
