HCMWorkerListPage textbased/combo box filtering

Hello All,

I have a question w.r.t to HCMWorkerListPage. I know that AX does provide out of box filtering for criteria's such as Name, Personnel number and many more. but I want to filter different criteria's not mentioned in that list.

So I created a combo box called Created a combo box filter FIMMInstructorBiosFilterEducation in FCMHCMworkerListPage and tried the following:(Reference: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh745335.aspx)

- As the combo box thing was not working I Created a string field(FCMTextString) in FCMHCMworkerListPage and tried querying the text based in the HCMWorker table
HCMworker table  > executeQuery
 qbrName = SysQuery::findOrCreateRange(
               this.queryBuildDatasource(),
               fieldNum(DirPerson,Name));
   qbrName.value(
        FCMTextString.text() ?
   '*'+queryValue(FCMTextString.text())+'*' :
   SysQuery::valueUnlimited());
  super();
no need of init as we have declared everything in execute query.This example I used from a book called microsoft_dynamics_ax_2012_development_cookbook (page no 118 and 119)

Please let me know if you all have any questions/concerns.

Thanks in advance for all of your reply
