When NAV2009 was released, a new variable type was introduced called page. As most of you know, page and form numbers are transparent in NAV. This means that every page should have a form and vice versa. Depending of the client it will show the page or form with that number. For example: The table 21...

Up to this point we have been preparing the structures needed to support our application. We have created the traditional simple tables and forms, as well as gone through the process of generating some pages equivalent to those forms. The entire reason for the latter work was that it is only possible...

Finally getting around to putting together the bits for my exploration into web services, and more importantly how to consume them using C#. So what's the plan?
