I have plans that belong to clients. The clients have relationship managers, analysts and administrators. I would like to be able to search for plans by client relationship manager, analyst or administrator. I would then like to come back and have my plans business object populated with the oines that were selected in the browse dialogue.

Can someone please point me in the right direction so that I can get this done?

TIA.

Sorry, I'm almost nuts with some coding myself over here, and didn't really get what you are trying to do...

But the thing is, a Browse Dialog will need a BO type and a BO instance of that type to populate. Once you get back from the BD, your can do whatever you want with that BO populated. You can filter it on some condition and use the SomeBO.CopyDataFrom to get the filtered records from the BO populated by the BD, for example.

Sorry if this has nothing to do with what you need.

Hi Ivan.

Thanks so much for getting back to me so quickly.

I read the documentation on the CopyDataFrom method, but it looked like the 2 business object needed to have the same structure. My problem is that they don't because I want the "searching" BO to be the result of a join between 3 tables and the primary BO in the form to be only one of them. Is there a way that I can use the CopyDataFrom method when the structure of the 2 BO's is not the same?
