Hi Faqruddin,

I don't think you can change the border color in Dynamics 365. There are options to change the background and font color as described on Microsoft Learn: Font and background colors for input, table, and grid controls - Finance & Operations | Dynamics 365 | Microsoft Learn

You can consider this as an alternative solution for your business requiement.

Hi Faqruddin,

Try to add your code on the init method of the form.

Thanks

Thanks for your responses. I try all init(), active() etc. I think Andre is correct. We cann't change the border color of the Form Control. Please let me know in case if you find solution. I don't have issue in applying font color, background.

Hello @Faqruddin,

the border method is to get/set the style of the borderline of the control not to set color code !

you can set 0 = Auto, 1 = 3D, 2 = Single line, 3 Flat, 4 = None

FormStringControl.border Method (Dynamics.AX.Application) | Microsoft Learn

if you want to set color on control you can use :

foregroundColor()

backgroundColor()

best regards
