FormListControl.getItemPos(Int32) Method

Definition

Namespace:

Dynamics.AX.Application

Assembly:

Retrieves the position of an item in a form list control.

public:
 virtual cli::array <System::Object ^> ^ getItemPos(int _Item);

public virtual object[] getItemPos (int _Item);

abstract member getItemPos : int -> obj[]
override this.getItemPos : int -> obj[]

Public Overridable Function getItemPos (_Item As Integer) As Object()

Parameters

_Item

Int32

An Integer data type that specifies an item in a form list control.

Returns

Object[]

A Container data type that contains the position of an item in a form list control. The position of an item is specified by an x-coordinate and a y-coordinate.

Remarks

Use the conPeek function to extract an item from a container.

The following example shows a call to the getItemPos method to return the position of each item in the form list control. The while select statement retrieves account numbers from the CustTable table and then stores the data in a container. The items in the variable are added to the form list control by calling the FormListControl.addItem method.
