    Okay then,

    On the itemid field of the form, override the modifiedField method and insert your logic.

    Ok, this is what I get from your explanation, you already have a field that is looking into a display method and this works fine.

    You would want to discard the display method.

    What I can think of is moving the block of code from the display method inside the modifiedfield method of the itemId field.

    This display method is working on Purchase order lines  .i just want an alternate field  to escape from display method and use another field without display method .  Working on Ax2012

    [SysClientCacheDataMethodAttribute(true)]

    display PurchLineShowItemName itemName()

    {

        PurchLineShowItemName purchLineShowItemName;

        if (this.ItemId)

       {

            purchLineShowItemName = this.inventTable().itemName(this.inventDim());

        }

        else

        {

            purchLineShowItemName = this.Name;

        }

        return purchLineShowItemName;

    }

    Okay,

    1. Could you please tell me the purpose of the form ?

    Is it an enquiry page ?

    Is it a data entry page ?

    2. At what point exactly do you want some of these fields hidden/displayed ?

    So you are using view instead of the table and you are having challenges.

    Please tell us where the issue lies with that view.

    Above code is working as field but i want to reduce process time because display methods consume more time to access data from db .. This can be possible by using query and view then drop view as form source on form drop field from datasource to grid but having problem while implementing above condition .
