Hello I have create a run base class which gives the following output!
Now I want to call this class using a Menu Item Button from a form… I have dragged the Class into the Action part of the Menuitems… I have created a menuitem button in the design part of form and opened a method called clicked… I am stuck here… how can i called the Class using this method Clicked? Or is there a better way to do so?
Here is the drop down of the form!
Hi,
1.There are two ways to do this :
1A)…
static void OpenDisplayMenuItem()
{
Args args = new Args();
;
args.record(VendTable::find(“XYZ”));
new MenuFunction(MenuItemDisplayStr(VendTable),MenuItemType::Display).run(Args);
}
1B)…
static void OpenForm()
{
FormRun formRun;
Args args = new Args();
;
args.name(formstr(VendTable));
args.record(CustTable::find(“XYZ”));
formRun = ClassFactory.formRunClass(args);
formRun.init();
formRun.run();
formRun.wait();
}
In case of any issue do let me know 
Regards

No, both suggestions are wrong. There is no need to write any code to open a form by menu item. But above all, the question is about executing a RunBase class, not about a form.
@Chitanya, your problem is not primarily about RunBase classes, the problem is that you don’t know how menu items work in general.
If you use a menu item pointing to a class, AX executes its main(Args _args) method (or throw an error if it doesn’t exist). You have to implement your code in the main() method.
The usual implementation looks like this:
public static void main(Args _args)
{
RunBase runBase = new MyClassExtendingRunBase();
if (runBase.prompt())
{
runBase.run();
}
}
As you see, you don’t need any clicked() method in your form. As soon as you implement the class correctly, you can drag & drop the menu item to forms and it all works.
Thanks Martin,
That worked!This is the first time i am working with classes and menu items so i got the concept wrong… thanks for helping me out! I got the Main method right but messed up at the properties in the menu items… Thanks anyways
Thanks for the Reply Pawan!
