What’s going on with my Windows 7 blog series, you might be wondering?  Well, I am still working on it, in fact I’ve broadened the scope of my studies to include ALL AREAS of Windows 7 development (in preparation for my upcoming trip and talks in South Africa).  I do plan to publish quite a few more posts in the series over the next couple of weeks. Lest you think I am all work and no play, I’ll have to admit that I’ve been combining work and socializing too.  Below is a sampling of recent good times… Geek BBQ in Venice Swanky party in Hollywood Beach party with the Laguna Girls (I took the picture, so I am not in this one!)

You could make the AxBoundFieldGroup use the CustomBoundField ( http://blogs.msdn.com/solutions/archive/2009/04/20/ax-custom-bound-fields.aspx ) instead of the regular bound field by hooking into the OnCreatingBoundField event (KB971547) of the  AxBoundFieldFactory.  For example create an assembly with the below code and put it in GAC. public class AxSampleBoundFieldFactory {  public void OnCreatingBoundField(object sender, CreatingBoundFieldEventArgs eventArgs)  {    if (eventArgs.Field.Name == “Date”)      eventArgs.BoundField = new AxSampleDateBoundField();  } } Then modify the master page (C:Program FilesCommon FilesMicrosoft Sharedweb server extensions12TEMPLATEFEATURESDynamicsAxEnterprisePortaldefaultax.master) and add the below code to invoke this eventhandler in page init.
