Hello,

I have a lookup field in a grid.I want to disable the field such that user cannot manually enter anything.all the values can be selected only thorough the lookup.

How can i achieve this?

Thanks

make this field uneditable and do with onlookup and validate value from onlookup trigger.

if you make the string edit field un editable the lookup field will not show up.

there should be some other way out.

what are you doing exactly?
do this....
set editable property to false.try it on form..

Code: Select all

onlookup trigger of table
IF FORM.RUNMODAL(0,Item) = ACTION::LookupOK THEN
   VALIDATE("Item No.",Item."No.");

Have you realized you are replying in AX forum and not NAV. AX properties and coding is different from NAV.
