Hello,

I have bound a business object to a ComponentOne grid through an instance of the BusinessBindingSource object.  When I attached security keys to some of the business object's fields, it didn't seem to have any affect on the grid - users who do not have access to a field will be able to see it on the grid.  Does field level security not work with the BusinessBindingSource object or am I doing something wrong?  Thanks for your help.

For what it's worth, I added a standard DataGridView control to my test screen (to remove ComponentOne from the loop) and that didn't help.  So, it seems as though field level security is not enforced when a BusinessBindingSource object is used.  Can you guys confirm this?  Thanks.

Fran.

Fran,

The BBS at the moment is not respecting the security fields as it relates to binding to a grid and having the same native functionality as bound to any other type of control.  This is due to the nature of the IBindindList interface and how it interacts with the grid.  This is going to take some time to work through and as soon as we have a solution we will let you know.  Sorry for any trouble.

Trent,

No trouble - I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't doing something wrong.  Thanks for the update!

Fran.
