  Args            args;
   args = new args();

   super();

And in dialog run

    ;

If the dialog is indeed a form in AOT, you should have no problems using args.record() or args.parm(), you should do as described at How to pass a parameter between two forms in Axapta?

If you are dynamically creating a dialog from x++, well, you are still able to override event methods on controls as described here: Override the event methods on dialog controls in Dynamics AX.

Just one suggestion though: don't you args.parm() unless you really need to, looking at the sample code you posted, it is perfectly ok to use args.record() instead.
