How do you tell how a built-in epiUltraGrid was created?

Hello,

I recently learned from josecgomez on how to replace an epicUltraGrid with a BAQ view and it works great!
Now my problem is, how do you tell how the original epiUltraGrid was created?
I am trying to recreate the grid from ‘Method Tracker’ materials->List tab.
A lot of the fields I can find by the field help but some don’t show a DB Field.
Some of the fields show the same DB Field on different columns like the ‘UOM’ columns.

Would replacing this grid to add a column be feasible or do I need to pursue some other avenue to add it?

Any advise is appreciated.

Thanks,
Shawn

There isn’t really a way without doing some back end magic sauce. Most of the fields if you go to Help -> Field Help will tell you where they come form on the DB. (MOST)

So there is no way to determine the ones that don’t list in the field help?

There are ways… just not something that is easy or trivial. Look into Reflector, Decompiling and such. But it is not for the faint of heart.

Well that sucks! Lol.
I guess I will have to muddle through and find out if they can live without the fields I can’t reproduce.
Thank you for the timely answer, I appreciate it.
