Afte I save a BO, I need to do additional processing of the BO, updating some other tables and logging before and after data.

It would apear that the 'AfterSave' event is probably the best place to do this, but I cannot access rows marked for deletion.

I can copy the BO in the BeforeSave event (and then process it in the AfterSave Event) , but am having difficulty processing Deleted Records , as I cannot see them in the BO ( I have the OnlymarkAsDeleted option set when Deleting rows so they are not removed from the Database until I save) . Also when this flag is set, the AfterDeleteEvent still fires , even though the row will not have been physically removed from the Database table yet.

Any ideas appreciated

Hi Ivan

Even if I do this, because I have the OnlyMarkAsDeleted set, the record is deletd from the BO (but not from the Database Table yet), but the user can Undo changes, which means the Deleted record is Undeleted. Still back to the situation where I cant , or dont want to anyway, do anything until the Backend Database tables have been updated.

I suppose ideally what I am looking for is the Business Object  (or some version of  it ) just prior to the database Update which has both the New,Modified and deleted rows in it).

I would have thought that anybody who is logging Audit type stuff must have already done this ?

Yeah, I haven't tried OnlyMarkAsDeleted on a maintenance form. I did it when programmatically deleting many records.

The way I would go would be, as I said, to use the BeforeDelete, get that record on a temp BO and deal with it AfterSave. In the case of an Undo, nothing would have to be done.

But I guess someone else who has approached this in a different maner might jump in and give you some other ideas.

Cheers.
