AX7 / D3FO: Form extensions and their method sequence

You can extend the functionality of a form by extending its controls and data sources. For example, in a form extension, you can:
·         Add a new control.
·         Enable or disable a control.
·         Change the text or label property of a control.
·         Change a control's visibility.
·         Change a form's help text.
·         Change a form's caption.
·         Add a new data source.
·         Change properties at the data-source level.
·         Add a form part.

Other ways to customise a form, such as reordering controls in the form or subscribing to form or control events, are planned to be included in a future release. In Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012, you could override form methods. In the current version, you use extensions to implement event handlers that are called from the base implementations of form methods. The following table lists each method and its associated events.
