[Search Lists] Accessing Return Fields Passed In

Original Post: Gareth Ahmun (Morgan Cole LLP) 05/11/2012 14:18:13

"Hello,
I have a searchlist which in turn calls another searchlist. The first has a return field set. Is there any way to access the return field from the first searchlist in the script of the second searchlist?
Thanks, Gareth"

"Hi Gareth,
I've used the below code for a Master/Details type relationship between Searchlists on a screen. so when you select an item on the first screen you then it passes the GUID in this case to the second screen.
//Get Value from the first Searchlist
string ReferrerGuid = slCategory.CurrentItem()[“Category ID”].Value.ToString();

//Collection of parameters to pass to the search list KeyValueCollection kvc = new KeyValueCollection(); kvc.Add(“Guid”, ReferrerGuid);

//Set the sql or stored procedure in this case and pass parameters to the second search list. slProduct.SetSearchList(“udReferrerProd”, null, kvc);
slProduct.Search();

Phil"

"Cheers Phil.
I need this to work on a standard searchlist on a tab (as opposed to both on the same screen). It seems like you can access it through the ReplacementParamaters of the second searchlist.

"I've used that as well on other things, this sort of format. this.SearchList.ReplacementParameters.Add(“Directory”, strFolder); That feeds in whatever you want into the other searchlist.
