I opened the Business Object Mapper and got the following:



SqlException

   Invalid object name 'DTEprojects'.

Invalid object name 'DTEproject_computer_tie'.



Source : .Net SqlClient Data Provider

I have no idea what this means.

The messages "Invalid object name 'DTEprojects'. Invalid object name 'DTEproject_computer_tie'." are from SQL Server stating that it cannot find those tables within the given database connection.



Verify that your database connection is currently pointing to the StrataFrame database by selecting Database Connection from the StrataFrame menu within Visual Studio and editing the database connection that has a green check.

I'll try that. I guess I'm still somewhat confused about the way you handle connections. For example, the connections that I add to the data layer don't seem to have usernmame or password properties or a connectionString property for that matter so I am not clear about how one would change the logon info of an existing connection.

When you open the "Database Connections" option under the StrataFrame menu within Visual Studio, you are not configuring the database connection for your application, but rather the database connection used by StrataFrame's design-time components (the Business Object Mapper, the Localization Editor, and the Database Deployment Toolkit).



The database connection for your application is configured within the SetDataSources() method of the "program.cs" file. In that method, you either:



1) Add RequiredDataSources and let the ConnectionManager popup a wizard asking for the connection string, or



2) Add the SqlDataSourceItem objects to the collection manually, specifying the connection string for the application when you create the SqlDataSourceItem.



If you choose option #1, then to allow the end user to change the connection string (including the username/password in the connection string), you can call MicroFour.StrataFrame.Data.ConnectionManager.ShowAvailableConnections() which will show the Database Connections dialog for your application, allowing the end-user to change the connection string.
