Bu what I & my friend Anish can say is .................. If you don’t want to display all the values of a specific base enum in certain forms, is it necessary to delete some values from a BaseEnum at runtime? Instead of deleting we can hide the values from the user. 1 Hiding the value from the user on a specific form Control which present the enumtype should have AutoDeclaration (yes) Try this piece of code Control_name.delete(“Name of the element”); If we really want to delete the values of a baseenum on run time Use the class SysDictEnum 2 Deleting the enum value on Run time (dynamically) SysDictEnum = new SysDictEnum(enum_Id); //initialization Sysdictenum.treeNode().AOTfindChild("Name of the element").AOTdelete(); //deleting the element from the Enum SysDictEnum.treeNode().AOTcompile(1); //compile SysDictEnum.treeNode().AOTsave(); //Saving the baseenum Pls chk out the link for further info: microsoft.public.axapta.programming Sailendran Rajan axaeffect <[EMAIL PROTECTED]<mailto:axaeffect%40yahoo.com.sg>> wrote: Hi all, this disscusion already old, but does anyone already found the solution yet? 'cause this's also my problem right now.. :) Daniel's code seems fine to me, b'cause when I debug it, the final result is the value of the original enum, not the deleted one. But the overwrite method "Enter" which delete the unwanted enum produce an unbalance program, after I select the enum combo, the form refresh all the time.. thanks, ton --- In [email protected]<mailto:development-axapta%40yahoogroups.com>, "brotherjason82" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi Daniel, your problem still exists. the thing is, axapta stores the > selection using the enumvalue (integer) within the record level. you > can look at the table browser and look at the saved record. what you > have info-ed is just the text selection of the enum. not the > enumvalue. try infoing this.selection() and see the difference. > cheers. i am also currently playing with hidding enum list. but have > not found a good way. will experiment with the below suggested options > by lenard as well. > > --- In > [email protected]<mailto:development-axapta%40yahoogroups.com>, > daniel lim > <daniellim_yh@> wrote: > > > > hi Lennart, > > > > i use something like this: > > > > in combox:enter: > > > > public void enter() > > { > > super(); > > //EnumABC has element A, B,C > > this.delete(enum2str(EnumABC::B)); > > } > > > > in combobox:modified: > > > > public boolean modified() > > { > > EnumABC _EnumABC; > > boolean ret; > > > > ret = super(); > > > > _EnumABC = str2enum(_EnumABC, this.getEditText()); > > > > info(strfmt('%1',str2enum(_EnumABC,this.getEditText()))); > > info(strfmt('this is %1',_EnumABC)); > > return ret; > > } > > > > in this example, i remove element B, at clicked method, it return > correct value for A and C as well. > > > > any problem with this code?is this recommended? pls advice and thx. > > > > > > daniel > > > > Lennart Conrad <lennartc@> wrote: > > If you use this approach (override enter), you will remove the enum > > value, but the remaining values in the enum will have their values > > shifted: > > E.g > > You have the enum (Quarter 1 = 1, Quarter 2 = 2, Quarter 3 = 3 Quarter > > 4=4) > > If you remove, Quarter 3, you will get 3 returned if you select Quarter > > 4.
