So I understand that there is no dropping of BO's on webforms, you create the BO reference in your ApplicationBasePage and it available to the entire website. Check.



Does that mean I need to create many BO's if I need them populated differently? For instance I have a BO that contains codes used to fill all my applications dropdowns, I have a BO on each form that calls a fill specific for the proper contents of the BO based on a "codetype" field.



So the generic question is this, since BO's essentially don't get instantiated into individual objects on a webform where I can call different fill methods, is the answer to make many BO's specified to their task, or am I on the wrong path?

Just FYI here Keith, we actually never do this online anymore (the read-only states I mean) when developing online apps. Instead of having two modes, we just let them type away which fires the IsDirtyChanged event which allows us to enable a Save button, etc. Would this work for you?
