DesignObject

  • Artikel

Opens the development environment and opens the specified object for design.

Syntax

Finsql.exe [servername=<server>,] [database=<database>,] designobject=<object type> <object ID>, [username=<user name>,] [password=<password>,] [ntauthentication=<yes|no|0|1>]

Parameters

servername

The name of the database server on which you want to run the command.

If you do not specify both the servername and the database parameter, then the database server and database that are stored in the fin.zup file are used.

Note

When you first specify a database server and database to open, either from a command at a command prompt or from a client, the database server and database are stored in the fin.zup file. By default, the fin.zup file is located at C:\users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\.

If you do not specify the servername parameter but you do specify the database parameter, then the Open Database window opens so that you can specify the database server name.

Tip

To view the name of the server on which the current database is stored, in the development environment, on the File menu, choose Database, and then choose Information. Use the value of the Database Server field for the servername parameter.

database

The database in which the objects that you want to compile are stored.

If you do not specify both the servername and the database parameter, then the database server and database that are stored in the fin.zup file are used.

Note

When you first specify a database server and database to open, either from a command at a command prompt or from a client, the database server and database are stored in the fin.zup file. By default, the fin.zup file is located at C:\users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\.

If you do not specify the database parameter but you do specify the servername parameter, then the Open Database window opens so that you can specify the database name.

Tip

To view the name of the current database, in the development environment, on the File menu, choose Database, and then choose Information. Use the value of the Database Name field for the database parameter.

designobject

The type and ID of the object that you want to design. This parameter is required. The possible values of the object type are:

  • Table

  • Page

  • Report

  • Codeunit

  • Query

  • XMLport

    The possible values of the object ID are 0 and any ID of an existing object. If you specify 0 for the object ID, then you open a new object to design.

    username

    The user name to use to authenticate to the database. The user name must exist in the database. If you do not specify a user name and password, then the command uses the Windows user name and password of the current user to authenticate to the database.

Note

If User Access Control (UAC) is turned on and you do not specify to run the Command Prompt window as Administrator, then the Command Prompt window runs as a standard user. In this case, if you do not specify the username parameter and the current Windows user is an Administrator, then the command is run as the standard user.

If you specify the username parameter, then you must also specify the password parameter and the ntauthentication parameter must be no.

For more information about database users and permissions, see Setting Database Owner and Security Administration Permissions.

password

The password to use with the username parameter to authenticate to the database. If you do not specify a user name and password, then the command uses the Windows user name and password of the current user to authenticate to the database.

ntauthentication

Specifies if you want to use NT authentication. The possible values are yes, no, 1, or 0. If you specify the username and password parameters, then you must specify ntauthentication=no or ntauthentication=0.

Remarks

You use the DesignObject parameter together with the finsql.exe executable. Finsql.exe is the executable file that runs the development environment. By default, finsql.exe is located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\100\RoleTailored Client\.

To design objects, you must have a developer license.

Example

This example shows how to run a command to open the development environment and open Page Designer to design page 21, Customer Card.

finsql.exe servername=TestComputer01\NAVDEMO, database="Demo Database NAV (10-0)", designobject=Page 21
