Use edit method for lookup.

Hai

You can override modfied field in table level/form level of empl id field.

OR display method for employe name based on emplid.

Hi,

Use the following code on your table

edit Name Name(boolean set,EmplId val)
{
if (set)
{
if (!val)
{
warning(“Error”);

}
else
this.EmplId = val;
}
return EmplTable::find(this.EmplId).name();

}

use this method as a control for form in place of emplId field control.and override lookup method for this control by following code

public void lookup()
{
Args args;
FormRun formRun;
;
args = new Args();
args.name(formstr(MIN_EmplLookUpId));//MIN_EmplLookUpId will be your lookup form.
args.caller(this);
formRun = classfactory.formRunClass(args);
formRun.init();
this.performFormLookup(formRun);
}

Hope this will work as solution.
