Hi,

I looking the way to create Grid with multitable content. For example, if dataset contains 2 tables with relation between them, with DevExpress datagrid I can display both tables and expand row of master table to see related records from child table.

This works with DataSet .. but I can't imagine how it works with BusinessObjects and BBS... how to build using BOs this DataSource for the grid.

If you have example, would you be so kind to send it, or maybe any solution for this problem



Thank you

Denis Gavrikov

Hi Denis,



Well, standard parent / child stuff in SF is easy. Just a matter of setting up the relationships in the BO's (plenty of stuff in the SF Help). But how to render it all in one DevEx grid - I don't know. This does seem like a DevEx issue rather than a SF issue though.



Cheers, Peter

Denis,



You can tell that these guys have been in the trenches before as they know what they are talking about!



Yes, I think that your best best is to create a CustomBBS like you would for a report to create an object model, at which point I see no issue with the grid working. We actually do this with an Infragistics grid in our medical application. Just FYI, when you do this, you are better off trying to make this a read-only environment. Making this go both ways is possible (though more difficult), but we discovered that it confused our end-users. Go figure.
