Join the Clean Team! [8-|] Welcome to my fellow MVP Alain Krikilion, aka Kriki, who also clearly wants to clean up as you can read below. Let’s kriki up NAV! In the database properties of NAV, on the Options tab, there is the toggle Torn Page Detection. In SQL2000 this option…
Once I start to clean up … I can’t stop I guess. So here’s more that still resides in C/SIDE and has become totally obsolete (the following table is an excerpt from Changes in C/AL Behavior and Support from Earlier Versions of Microsoft Dynamics NAV): Function Change COMMANDLINE Not supported…
I guess this error message can make sense for sure, but not with what I was doing today. I mean, working with the new document reporting feature in NAV 2015, this perfectly would made sense importing a Word layout, that has just been updated, but in such a way that…

Digging myself into the new features in NAV 2015 I was referencing the Help and found myself looking at default page. My first thought was: Isn’t there any help for this field? So I returned to the page and selected the upper left dropdown arrow (forgotten the term for it),…
It is considered a general coding best practice to declare a function as being local. Over time you could see that the NAV Team was also adhering this, even though C/SIDE wasn’t helping a lot on this as new functions would by default be global, i.e. the property Local would…
Well, I did and noticed something that has been there apparently for some time … [:^)] … a year or so, since NAV 2013 R2. I surely had noticed that since then the C/AL editor shows the attributes. A simple but valuable feature that makes my live a lot easier….
So today I sat down to get things prepared for my session at Directions EMEA 2014, next week. Not in the least because this week I had to install a new laptop, hence having to let go of everything that was there and proofed working alright at Directions US. Indeed…
