How can you set the current Company and Group List

[jimdurkin]

Does anybody know a way to set the current company and/or group list.

There are currently two function to set Contacts and Opportunity list

    ACTAPP.ApplicationState.SetCurrentContactList(cContactList, nothing)

    ACTAPP.ApplicationState.SetCurrentOpportunityList(cOpportunityList, nothing)

If not can you add those two functions into the SDK?

    ACTAPP.ApplicationState.SetCurrentCompanyList(cCompanyList, nothing)

    ACTAPP.ApplicationState.SetCurrentGroupList(cGroupList, nothing)

thanks

Hi Jim,

Is it possible to try:

IContactSource iSource = actApp.ActFramework.Lookups.LookupContacts(cList);

actApp.ApplicationState.SetCurrentContactList(cList,iSource);

Sorry its in c# but hopefully you get the gist. I haven't tried it myself but unless the LookupManager.LookupContacts(cList) actually does return the cList as a IContactSource and not just the cList's own OContactSource I do not anticipate an issue?

Let me know how if this helps.

Vivek

vivek,

Thanks for the help but I already know how to set the currentContactList.

I am looking for a way to set the currentGroupList and the currentCompanyList.

Hi Jim, never thought I'd see the say where I'd be giving you advice ....

From what I remember the current company list and current group list are writeable properties unlike current contact list so you could just say

ActApp.ApplicationState.CurrentGroupList = glist

ActApp.UiGroupManager.ShowGroupDetailView 

Please excuse any typos I don't have intelisense to hand.
