C# – Retrieving display value of lookup field in Dynamics CRM C# plugin

cdynamics-crmdynamics-crm-4lookupplugins

I am trying to retrieve the display value of a lookup field in a plugin for MS Dynamics CRM 4.0. The value of the attribute is a GUID which points to another entity (owner of salesorder in this case). "Normal" attributes I retrieve with a code like this:

CrmDateTime  serviceOrderDateDT = (CrmDateTime)entity["submitdate"];
                      serviceOrderDate = serviceOrderDateDT.Value.ToString();

Any ideas on how to do this for the display value of a lookup field?

Best Answer

Owner ownerLookup = (Owner)entity["ownerid"];
string ownerName = ownerLookup.name;

Javascript hide certain table rows when a button is clicked

Use show() and hide()

For example, when "Show fire-based champs" is clicked, do:

$('tbody tr').hide() //Hide all rows
$('tbody tr:has(a.fire)').show() //Show all fire rows

Here is a jsfiddle that has all the code in it

HTML code:

<html><head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.0.0b1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

 function show(champ){
  $('tbody tr').hide()   
  $('tbody tr:has(a.'+champ+')').show()
 }


</script>


</head>

  <table border="1" width="800">
