Hi,

I am trying to populate a grid from 2 BO's by creating custom fields in the 'master' BO. My code for the custom field properties is :



My form has the following event enabled:



When I hit the assignment to computerName I get the exception

"Column 'computerName' does not belong to table HLSUserNames."

Can anyone please advise, many thanks

Thanks for the suggestion, I have decided to try the ListView route. I have used the ChildDialogFormSample as a guide. I have it partially functioning. The issues I have at the moment are:

1) My computer name and logged in values are not displayed.

2) My call to SeekToPrimaryKey(list.SelectedItems[0].Tag) seems to generate an exception, it seems that it can't find the record with the index value, which I have confirmed is in the table.

I would appreciate a shove in the right direction on this, many thanks.

Hi Iam,

The listview has a property named AutoNavigateToSelectedRecord, if you set this to True, you can then just reference the BO and no need to seek the record.

Here are the settings I use for the ListView:

1. I drop an instance of the BO I will use in the ListView in the fom.  I do this so I can manipulate the data in the BO instead of the ListView where I may not have all the fields I need to work with.
2. PopulationDataSourceSettings (Method to Execute) CopyDataFrom(BusinessLayerBase,BusinessCloneDataType).  Make sure the "Tag Field" is the PK of your table.
3. When using the population type in #2, you must tell the ListView to use the BO in step 1, so do this in the ListPopulating event using code like this (sorry VB)

e.Parameters(0).Value = Me.BizTransactionItems1
e.Parameters(1).Value = MicroFour.StrataFrame.Business.BusinessCloneDataType.ClearAndFillFromDefaultView

• AutoNavigateToSelectedRecord = True
• BusinesObject = the one dropped in step 1.
• ChildForm =  whatever childformdialog you will be using.

Make sure you populate your BO either manually or at the form load.
