Thread: fire event from onchange of lueAccount (insert opp)

fire event from onchange of lueAccount (insert opp) Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

I have added a dropdown to the insert opp form (I have moved this file to support files so I can modify in VS) that is populated with routine call 'BindList' that uses the accountID of the account in lueAccount. What are my options on when to fire this event based on the fact that the account is often chosen after the form has loaded? Does the lueAccount have an onchange event I can hook into? I noticed there is code in AA on the OnChange event but I don't see how to hook into this in Visual Studio.. I also tried adding code to the onchange of the Reseller lookup to see if code was generated I could copy but I don't see where this event is fired from.

I was also trying to capture the postback of the lueAccount control. I tried in the pageload event of the smartpart but this doesn't seem to fire when the lueAccount posts back.. Where can I fire my routine to populate my custom dropdown when an account has been chosen on the insert opp screen? Thanks

Add an onchange event to the lookup - and select C# Snippet Item (Obsolete). This will keep the code in the form and will be easier for you to manipulate in VS. The new Code Snippet method removes all of the code and puts it in a dll, which is not easy to manipulate in VS. It is a better approach from a software perspective to use the new code snippet (fully separating logic from presentation etc (blah blah)) but it does have its drawbacks.

Actually re-reading your post I guess you are already utilising a custom smartpart? (not a quickform). If so a line such as:

//lueAccount.LookupResultValueChanged += new EventHandler(myMethod);

to your OnWireEventHandlers() method (in your custom smartpart). This will setup an onchange call for your lookup. Then just code your method (myMethod)...:

//protected void myMethod(object sender, EventArgs e) { ..... }

Thanks,
Nick
