    Hi All;

    This question has been asked in the past but there's no answer so I create this topic again and hopefully someone will have an answer for me

     I try to create some custom forms in DS based on some Non-Lawson tables. I've created new system code, defined db files; rebuild dic and run dbreorg. Everything seems OK. In DS, I can see the new system code and new file in Data Query; however i don't see the form ID from that system code if use Formlet or Drill component.  Anyone has idea of accessing non lawson tables from DS please let me know

    Thanks in advanced.

      Did you create a COBOL program and do a quick paint on the db file? That creates the first xml form.

          You will need to familiarize yourself with the lawson utility pgmdef and the quickpaint utility therein.
          See: support.lawson.com/gid/docs/09000000/eadw-w.pdf for more info. Page 108 deals with quick paint.
