I'll do my best to put my question into words... just not sure how to.



Consider I have a table with these fields



TableName: Employees

EmployeeID

FirstName

LastName

LocationID



Here is an excerpt from the Locations table



LocationID LocationName

1 United States

2 Canada

3 Mexico



Lets say I created a BO based on this Employees table. Now I create a maintenance form based on this Employees BO.



Now I want to create a BrowseDialog. The question I have is when I create the browse dialog how can I display the locationnames and have them be searchable instead of the ID.



I had thought about creating another BO based on a view I would create with the columns i need but I'm not sure how the browsedialog returns results to the BO its filling if the BO its browsing is different than the Primary BO attached to the form.



I hope thats not too confusing.

As of right now, you can only search within a single BO.  Now you can display anything you want and use as many BO's as necessary for displaying a record...this is where the BrowseInformationPanel would be helpful.  But I have run into this several times myself and have just had to work around it.  Really what you need is to be able to specify a combo box for the item and have it already populated with the Locations.  This way the end-user could select the location via a combo but the search would be performed by respecting the integer value in the table.  So for now this really isn't possible.  Sorry
