Get formRun, Form control, datasource and selected record from form datasource :

[FormDataSourceEventHandler(formDataSourceStr(MyForm, MyRandomTableDS), FormDataSourceEventType::Written)] public static void MyRandomTableDS_OnWritten(FormDataSource sender, FormDataSourceEventArgs e)

{

FormRun formRun = sender.formRun() as FormRun;

// you can even call custom methods

formRun.myCustomMethod();

// Get the selected datasource record

TableName tableBuffer = sender.cursor();

// Get datasource variable

FormDataSource DSVariable = sender.formRun().dataSource(“TableName”);

}

Get form datasource from xFormRun

[FormEventHandler(formStr(SomeForm), FormEventType::Initialized)] public static void SomeForm_OnInitialized(xFormRun sender, FormEventArgs e)

{

FormDataSource MyRandomTable_ds = sender.dataSource(formDataSourceStr(SomeForm, MyRandomTableDS));

…

}

Access form control from xFormRun

[FormEventHandler(formStr(SomeForm), FormEventType::Initialized)] public static void SomeForm_OnInitialized(xFormRun sender, FormEventArgs e)

{

// set the control to invisible as an example

sender.design().controlName(formControlStr(SomeForm, MyControl)).visible(false);

}

Get FormRun from form control

[FormControlEventHandler(formControlStr(MyForm, MyButton), FormControlEventType::Clicked)] public static void MyButton_OnClicked(FormControl sender, FormControlEventArgs e)

{

FormRun formRun = sender.formRun() as FormRun;

formRun.myCustomMethod();

}

Get current record in form control event

[FormControlEventHandler(formControlStr(SomeForm, SomeButton), FormControlEventType::Clicked)] public static void SomeButton_OnClicked(FormControl sender, FormControlEventArgs e)

{

// as an example the datasource number is used for access; I perceive the formDataSourceStr as more robust

SomeTable callerRec = sender.formRun().dataSource(1).cursor();

}
