Using VS C# and the VS Toolkit for GP 2010, how do you capture events on the Action button of the SOP and POP Transaction Entry screens? I see the Save Button events and the Action Button events but how do you capture the sub-events of the Action Buttons?
?

Hi Richard,

Is this what you are looking for?

// private class field

private SopEntryForm sopForm = Dynamics.Forms.SopEntry;

// in the constructor

this.sopForm.SopEntry.SaveButton.ClickAfterOriginal +=new EventHandler(SaveButton_ClickAfterOriginal);

// method to handle after the save button is clicked

// you could also handle the ClickBeforeOriginal too if you needed to do something like validation

static void SaveButton_ClickAfterOriginal(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

// do stuff here

}

Or are you looking to capture the EventArgs passed through the handler?

I am trying to capture the fact that after clicking Actions, I may click Post,Transfer,Copy,Delete or Void. How to I capture clicking those?

Hi Richard,

The individual actions do not have event handlers. You would need to handle the Change event of the action button, and check the value. I would use a switch statement to see which selection was pressed by the user. See the code below:

// class variable
private SopEntryForm sopForm = Dynamics.Forms.SopEntry;

// in the constructor
sopForm.SopEntry.ActionButton.Change +=new EventHandler(ActionButton_Change);

// method to handle the ActionButton change event
private void ActionButton_Change(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
switch (sopForm.SopEntry.ActionButton.Value) // the Value is a short type
{
   case 1: // delete
      // TODO handle the delete click here

      break;
  case 2: // void
    // TODO handle the void click here

     break;
   default:
      break;
}
}

In the switch statement, you can handle the clicks individually, or treat this like an action factory of sorts. You may also subscribe to the Validation events as well instead of the Change event if you want to add some custom validation to the button.

Thanks,
