How to Link a Prompt in Modifier

This sounds like such a simple task, but I defy you to figure it out on your own.

In Dynamics forms, there is the concept that a text field can be linked to it's label, or 'prompt'. There is also the concept that the linked label will then respond in tandem to it's 'linkor', Linking can affect a label's Visible, Editable, and Required properties (read Mariano for more: http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.com/2009/02/importance-of-linking-your-fields-to.html).

At any rate, our job at DynDeveloper is to provide RAD guidance: guidance to get you quickly coding. True to form, here is a short tutorial on how to link text boxes and labels in Modifier


 

Drop a new text box and label on a Dynamics GP form.

Position them as required.

From the top menu, click on Tools > Link Prompt

Click and hold on the text box, drag the label.

You should see the resulting link now in the Properties form, when you click on the text box.
