how to load a record

dear UG,

i am in search of a script that loads a custom record on to a form so i can make changes and save to the database.

take a look at the script below and see if there is anything am not doing right. as it does not return any error but is does not do the required function.







<!-- script written by Enyioko Cosmos ocp oca,mcse,mcsa,mcp, GMNIM->



function beforeSubmit()
{

//  run this script for existing records
//call the old record




// Get or load the existing record

var record = nlapiLoadRecord( 'customrecord_books_records', 19);


// Get the particular book record
