Set smartpart toolbar button visibility at runtime Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

On the opp insert screen I would like to hide the add button on the opp contacts smart part at run time - so I would like the primary contact to display and get added as happens oob, but not allow the users to add others on the insert.. Is this possible?

It should be possible yes - the button should have an id, something like cmdAddContact etc., just set its visible property to false...

//cmdAddContact.Visible = false;

This could be in a quickfornmload or on a changeaction of an item on the screen, depending on when you need it called.

Is that what you were after, or did I misunderstand your requirement?

Thanks Nick. That makes sense but the part I can't quite get is how to only hide the button when the smartpart is in the insert opp screen.. I want it visible when it is a tab off the opp detail. Is there a way to tell if the opp contact smart part is being displayed from the insert screen vs. as a tab off opp detail?

The easiest way I guess is to see if the current Opp has an Id - if its Insert it will be null, so in quickformload...

//Sage.Entity.Interfaces.IOpportunity opp = GetParentEntity() as Sage.Entity.Interfaces.IOpportunity;
//if(opp.Id == null)
//{
//cmdAdd.Visible = false;

//}

Should do the trick. Or you can reference the querystring, look for the modeId, something like :
//if(Request.QueryString["modeId"] != null) { string mode = Request.QueryString["modeId"]; if(mode == "Insert") {//We are in Insert...}}

Spot on - in retrospect I should've come up with that on my own but I appreciate the help. Thanks

Steve, I also have a write up of ways to determine the page mode here: http://customerfx.com/pages/crmdeveloper/2009/04/20/determining-the-page-mode-at-runtime-in-saleslogix-web.aspx
