Posted on by BouMe 31

Hello,

I am working on extensions for NAV2018.

I tried to show a Text from a BLOB field in a Word Layout. But I am having the following result :

I used a "Repeating" Content Control in the Word Layout and CalcFields in the trigger OnAfterGetRecord() :

    Hello  - We currently do not have dedicated Dev support via the Dynamics 365 Business Central forums, but I wanted to provide you some additional resources to assist.  If you need assistance with debugging or coding I would recommend discussing this on one of our communities.

    I will open this up to the community in case they have something to add.

    Take a look at the “Work Description” field on the sales header. Using that as an example take a look at how this field is calculated and then displayed in the report for sales order confirmation or sales invoice. Should be enough inspiration to get your scenario solved

    Hi,

    The solution that I found is using a Text field that I fill with InStream

    trigger OnAfterGetRecord();
            var
                locCalculLoyerEntete : Record "Calcul Loyer Entete";
                osInStream : InStream;
                sLine : Text;
                sCrLf : Text;
                cCr : Char;
            begin
                locCalculLoyerEntete.Get("No.");
                locCalculLoyerEntete.CalcFields("Documents Manquants");
                // Transform BLOB "Documents Manquants" to Text in sDocsManquants
                sDocsManquants:='';
                sLine:='';
                cCr:=10;
                sCrLf:=Format(cCr, 1); // Display line break
                Clear(osInStream);
                if "Documents Manquants".HasValue then
                begin 
                    locCalculLoyerEntete."Documents Manquants".CreateInStream(osInStream);
                    while not osInStream.EOS do begin
                        osInStream.ReadText(sLine);
                        sDocsManquants+=sLine+sCrLf;
                    end;
                end;
            end;
