    Passing parameters to global procedures

    I am trying to invoke the global and form level procedures available in VS tools. However, I cannot find the parameter names of the procedures. I have checked the VS tools SDK; these are documented as parm1, parm2 and so forth. Some functions take up to 12 parameters.

    Example: For procedure Dynamics.Procedures.GetBudgetDates, the documentation available in visual studio is void GetBudgetDatesProcedure.Invoke (FieldReadOnly inParam1, ref Field outParam2, ref Field outPranm3)

    There is no information about what these parameters do. Is there any way to find parameter name and description of procedures and functions?
    Thanks.

    Re: Passing parameters to global procedures

    AFAIK, those are not documented. If you get the Dynamics SDK you might stumble across something, I have on occasion.

    Another avenue would be to look at Dex documentation or to ping a good Dex developer (which I'm not), those methods are (I believe) exposed from Dex.

    I've made support calls in the past to get the param names for specific methods, I'm always careful to document what I find here but it's not very much.

    Please take the time to document what you learn.

    Thanks Steve for your help!
    I am going to look further in dexterity. I will document if I find anything.
