On this beautiful sunny Sunday morning in Los Angeles, I'm working on a modified Dynamics GP Item Maintenance window and writing the VS Tools code to manage the data on some custom fields.
![]()
On my GP 2015 server, I have GP customizations for multiple clients. Before I use the DAG to create a new Modified Forms assembly to include some changes to the Item window, I had to remove the other customizations. So I renamed the FORMS.DIC in the data directory, removed the VBA files in the GP application directory, and then re-imported the package for the modified Item Maintenance window.
All that went fine. But after I completed that process, whenever I opened Modifier to make a change to the Item Maintenance window, I got this error.
![]()
My guess was that it was being caused by one of two possible reasons. Either there was some issue with my modified form and/or the FORMS.DIC, or my process had caused a problem with the Modified Forms access rules in GP.
I tried renaming my FORMS.DIC and re-importing my modified form package. But the problem still existed.
So I then opened the Alternate/Modified Forms and Reports window and removed all selections for modified windows. In addition to my Item Maintenance window, I still had selections for the other modified windows that were no longer present, as I had a new FORMS.DIC. After setting all windows back to Dynamics GP default windows, I clicked on Save.
I then went back into the Alternate/Modified Forms window and selected my modified Item Maintenance window.
![]()
I then clicked on Save. With that cleaned up, I opened my modified Item Maintenance window by using Cards -> Inventory -> Item, and then selected Modify Current Window.
The error didn't appear. Great, I solved the problem--or so I thought.
I then clicked on a shortcut I had created to open my modified Item window.
![]()
When I then clicked on Modify Current Window, I received the error message again.
So it seemed like the problem was with my shortcut. I deleted the shortcut and recreated it, thinking that would fix it. I thought it worked okay the first time, but when I tried it again, I got the same error when opening Modifier.
So when I open the modified window through Cards -> Iventory -> Item, I don't get the error. But if I open the modified window with a shortcut, I do get the error.
The error doesn't seem to be critical, it's just annoying. But at this point, I haven't been able to get rid of it other than to not use the shortcut.
