Hi,

Any way to change a page in View mode (RunFormMode = View) to Create mode(RunForm Mode =Create ) based on the status of a checkbox in that page using C/AL code.

Two conditions are follows:

When Checkbox = True, RunFormMode of the page should be in Create mode.

when Checkbox = False, RunFormMode of the page should be in View mode.

How to change the the RunFormMode of a page using C/AL Code in Navision RTC?

Plz help! !

Plz

if you push a checkbox to set the form in to viewmode it won't be able to set it back to edit mode, because the form is in view mode.

but you can do the following: define a global variable ControlEditable (type boolean) and set this variable as value to the editable property of the controls, which you want to switch the edit/view mode. then add a checkbox control to the form and use the triggers onpush and onvalidate to switch by setting the variable ControlEditable to true/false followed by a currform.update.

other solution:
add a button to the form,
add following code to trigger button-onpush:
currform.editable := not currform.editable;
currform.update;

You can make a field editable and non-editable on the fly based on other field value but once the page is loaded i don't think you can make the page editable or non-editable you can do that before the page is open.

If you are looking to make the control editable, then check the customer card page for example the contact field on that page is controlled based on the primary contact no. value.
