Builds and runs the filter page that includes the filter controls that are stored in FilterPageBuilder object instance. 

[Ok :=] FilterPageBuilder.RUNMODAL()

Return Value

Type: Boolean

true if the user selects the OK button on the filter page; otherwise, false.

Remarks

The page is run modally and includes an OK and Cancel button for closing to modal popup.

You can call the GETVIEW function (FilterPageBuilder) function to retrieve the current filter view that is configured on the filter control and apply to the record.

Example

The following example initializes a filter page object that includes a filter control for the Date system table. The filter control has the caption of Date record. The example adds two filter fields to the filter control on the filter page as the result of applying a default view. The GETVIEW function is used to capture that filter view from the FilterPageBuilder object, and then apply it to the record.

This example requires that you create the following variables in the C/AL Globals window.

varFilterPageBuilder.ADDTABLE(varDateItem, DATABASE::Date);
varFilterPageBuilder.SETVIEW(varDateItem, varDefaultView);
