Autosearch dialog

edited July 2011 in Server
I've managed to get the sample custom parameters going.
Both the server and the web tier. I understand that I can
customise a web page for my own custom parameters.
What I'd like to know is how to actually customise a
autosearch form ? Not a web page, but a windows form.
Similar to the popup dialog form when the default AutoSearch is
invoked.


Is it possible ?

Thanks for the reply

Peter

    The custom parameter demos shows how to do this. You basically retrieve the
    parameters from the server, show an html form, and then when the form is
    submitted you use the values to generate the report.

    For standard VCL forms it possible to register a replacement for the the
    autosearch panels and/or the autosearch dialog. But with the RB WebTier the
    same approach is not available.
