Hi,

I want to use a timestamp for concurrency control and I can't figure out how I should configure the timestamp field in the BO Mapper. Whatever I try causes either compile or runtime errors. What is the recommended way of configuring a timestamp in the BO Mapper and is there anything I should be doing in _SetDefaultValues to set an initial value for a new record?

Cheers, Peter

True...but this also complicates things.  StrataFrame automatically manages the Row Version for you, which actually requires slightly less overhead than using a time stamp column.  So really if you are looking for a field versioning concurrency model, row version will actually be the best since it is literally a matter of creating the integer field and assigning it to the BO as you would a time stamp column.
