How to get a Common object from a table id?

Question

How to instantiate a common type object (the table's base class in AX) via a TableId? Furthermore what else can we do with TableId?

My goal is to send tableid to my method and there, I will make the buffer of the table the id belongs to. Is it possible?

Answer 1

It can be done like this:

public static Common makeRecord(TableId _tableId)
{
    return new DictTable(_tableId).makeRecord();
}

Answer 2

Yes you can do this. Here is a webpage explaining: http://www.doens.be/2009/07/select-a-record-from-a-table-when-you-only-have-the-tableid/
