Custom Form Blank Title 82404

Thank you for the responses!!

Ok, I see the DLL's for the tables now. I've probably been in there 50 times and always looking for a specific program and never took notice of those. I think that might get me to where I want to go. Thanks again to everyone!

Regards,

Kurt

I have searched and maybe I'm not searching correctly. I get so many results that aren't related I haven't found anything. I have the same problem on the Epicor site. Anyway, what I am trying to do is create a completely custom (new) form. Is there a way to do this? Many thanks in advance for your help!!

Kurt
Depending on what you are trying to accomplish A user define table may
give you what you are after. Go to menu maintenance (view help file for
this if not familiar) and create a new menu item based on a UD table
(UD01 through UD100, or even there are parent child tables).

Mr. Bucek,

Thanks for your reply!

I'm trying to get your suggestion to work, but I get an error. To have a new menu created, I think you need a program to tie it to, where I don't plan to use any current programs. I've done a fair amount of work in the Menu Maintenance, so I have a decent idea of how it works. I'm not intending to use an existing program. I would use a new table with just a few active fields (currently, but this might change in the future) and have a new form that would access this table which would end up being in a menu. It would be nice to have the form actually be tied to the table so the controls on the form could use it, but if need be, I could do any data reading/writing through code. I would say think of it as a new Visual Studio project where you start with a blank screen and add what you need. The only thing else I can think of is using a current form that has a minimal amount of controls, take this form and hide the current controls and add what I need. Then make this a customization and use it in the menu.

I'm probably missing something and it's looking right at me, but I just can't see it. The 'Help' in Vantage isn't really helping. Does what I'm asking make sense? Thanks again!!

Kurt,



If you have the Epicor Tools User Guide, there are step by step
instructions - Chapter 4, User defined tables.

Mr. Bucek,

Thanks for your reply!

I'm trying to get your suggestion to work, but I get an error. To have a
new menu created, I think you need a program to tie it to, where I don't
plan to use any current programs. I've done a fair amount of work in the
Menu Maintenance, so I have a decent idea of how it works. I'm not
intending to use an existing program. I would use a new table with just
a few active fields (currently, but this might change in the future) and
have a new form that would access this table which would end up being in
a menu. It would be nice to have the form actually be tied to the table
so the controls on the form could use it, but if need be, I could do any
data reading/writing through code. I would say think of it as a new
Visual Studio project where you start with a blank screen and add what
you need. The only thing else I can think of is using a current form
that has a minimal amount of controls, take this form and hide the
current controls and add what I need. Then make this a customizat ion
and use it in the menu.

I'm probably missing something and it's looking right at me, but I just
can't see it. The 'Help' in Vantage isn't really helping. Does what I'm
asking make sense? Thanks again!!

Kurt,

Each user defined table has a DLL assembly associated with it in the client
folder. For example, if you are going to use the UD01 table then you
connect your menu to Epicor.Mfg.UI.UD01Entry.dll

Once you re-login to Vantage you can open the new menu icon and find the
starting point for your customization. This form is connected to all of the
fields in table UD01. It also has 5 key fields to get started.

The 10 series tables/assemblies are single table and the 100 series/tables
are parent/child configured.

Ross

Mr. Bucek,

Thanks for your reply!

I'm trying to get your suggestion to work, but I get an error. To have a new
menu created, I think you need a program to tie it to, where I don't plan to
use any current programs. I've done a fair amount of work in the Menu
Maintenance, so I have a decent idea of how it works. I'm not intending to
use an existing program. I would use a new table with just a few active
fields (currently, but this might change in the future) and have a new form
that would access this table which would end up being in a menu. It would be
nice to have the form actually be tied to the table so the controls on the
form could use it, but if need be, I could do any data reading/writing
through code. I would say think of it as a new Visual Studio project where
you start with a blank screen and add what you need. The only thing else I
can think of is using a current form that has a minimal amount of controls,
take this form and hide the current controls and add what I need. Then make
this a customization and use it in the menu.

I'm probably missing something and it's looking right at me, but I just
can't see it. The 'Help' in Vantage isn't really helping. Does what I'm
asking make sense? Thanks again!!
