Hi All,

I am using .NET extension helper library thanks to Ryan Farley, in order to create .NET extensions for SalesLogix. Now I got a scenario where i needed to to launch a sales logix PickList inside a .NET form i'm developing. So i'm just wondering is there a way to launch the existing picklist within .NET control, without creating the picklist dialog from the scratch in .NET? This question applies to Lookups as well. Is there a way we can create lookups from SalesLogix Architect and simply show that in our .NET control?

If above is possible, how can we get the return values from picklist/lookup to our .NET control code

Regards,
Izzy 

For Lookups you can use:

var lookup = SlxApplication.BasicFunctions.LookupItemWithConditionByID("Account:Account", false, null, null, null, null);
string selectedId = lookup.ID;

For picklists use:

var selectedItems = slx.PickLists["Title"].Select(PickListColumnsEnum.plcItems, null, 200, 200, 300, 300);
if (selectedItems.Count > 0)
    string selectedValue1 = selectedItems[0].ToString();

You can of course play with the values for location and size.

Hi Ryan,

Thanks a lot for your help. Really appreciate the effort you put to these forums to help beginners like us. I see there is a method call LoadWithCallBack on .NET Extension helper library on saleslogix. Do you have anything that actually shows the functionality of this?

I saw on your youtube video tutorial you actually mention you will do a tutorial on that one. But i couldn't find one. May be you never got a chance. Would you please tell me how to use that method and what it actually does?

Regards,

Izzy
