How do I filter a business object by a custom property?

Group: Forum Members Posts: 785, Visits: 3.6K	When I attempt to filter a BO on a custom property, the debugger tells that the specified column does not exist. It is true that it cannot be found in the DB, but it is on the BO. Is there a trick to filtering on a custom property? Thanks, Bill

There are a couple of outstanding issues...the main one is that once I set a column's value in the CurrentDataTable the row is now dirty and the BO wants to save whenever I exit the window. Not sure this is the recommended way, I'm sure you will be adviced against it if not. Have you tryed issuing a SAVE right after you modifiy all your custom field values? This is what I'm doing, anyway! As this column is not part of your table, nothing will happen to it, I suppose.
