Hello,

You can add similar way like the way you are attaching form event in the Main form . Normally when Xrm.Page.getControl("FieldNAme").addOnKeyPress line will execute its automatically attach the function with the field , there is no separate event properties for that . Here is the few steps you need to follow -

1. Create a function in a JS webresource and add the line with addKeypress event attach to the control.

2. Add the JS web resource in the form library.

3. Register the funtion (onLoadAddKeyPressSample) in the form onload by going to form properties.

function onLoadAddKeyPressSample() { Xrm.Page.getControl("FieldNAme").addOnKeyPress(function(){ alert("Hello World"); }); }

===============

OR

==============

function onLoadAddKeyPressSample() { Xrm.Page.getControl("FieldNAme").addOnKeyPress(YourFunctionName); } function YourFunctionName() {
//Add logic here }

Hi Goutam,

Thanks for the response.

I have used the same way what you have suggested and things are working fine in desktop. The problem I am facing is, when we try the same functionality in mobile app (Dynamics 365 Mobile App), the script is not getting triggered.

Do you have any other option ?

The addonkeypress event is now deprecated and will not be supported on the unified interface (mobile included) - the way forwards will be to create a custom control when the framework is out of preview. Until then your only option is to use a custom html webresource in the form. See docs.microsoft.com/.../webpage-html-web-resources
