BO Mapper

I created a new database and table in SSMSE. I then created a new solution in VS2008. I thought that I would then go to the SF BOM, map my table, and build a form. However, I don't seem to understand the steps involved to create the first BO. I can create the BO project, but I can never get to the "configure project" link - it is never enabled. What am I missing? Thanks in advance.

First, try the step by step in "Getting Started" in the Help file. That worked for me.



If you create a new Strataframe project, then create a BO, then build (that may be what you missed) you should see the BO when you go to the BO mapper off the SF menu. Is that not happening for you?

Oh, and to add the new BO, just right click the project, pick ADD/ADD NEW ITEM and then pick a Strataframe Business object.

Actually Charles is going down the right path here.

To create a BO and then map it all you have to do is this:

  1. Create or open a VS project or solution
  2. Create a BO by right clicking the project then clicking Add item then select SF Business Object
  3. At this point if you open the BO Mapper, you will be able to see you project and get to the Configure Project after selecting the appropriate project from the tree view on the left. (probably the step you are missing)
