Lets say I want to add a property called RequiredAuditFields that does exactly what the RequiredFields. IE... a collection of collumns. What is the code to do this?

Hi Ross.
Here is a thread that could get you started:

FYI, I ended up implementing the collection property without the editor, it proved a bit more work with the VS integration than I was willing to invest at the time, if you go down that road all the way, it would be great if you share your results

Before I abandon this I was hoping that you may be able to shed some light on this? The type or namespace name 'UITypeEditor' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) I placed this in my BO Base, along with other code that seems to be working but when it comes to this line I get this error above. Here are my USING statements in the BaseBO:

I am not trying to create a new UITypeEditor but just trying to use the same one used by StrataFrame.

Forget my last post for now. I just got past this.

The property "AuditFields" does now appear on the BOs that inherit from the Base BO but the caption "Collection" does not show and when I click on the eclips I get the follow error:
"An error occurred while attempting to load this type editor: Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
Again, my hope here, is that you may be able to provide any information that may assist. I have successfully integrating the Auditing into our BaseBO as well as a ActivityLog viewer. My last goal is the creating of a property to allow the user to select none or select what fields they want to include. In addition I have some other plans for this but need to know what I may need to consider.
public class AuditField : IRequiredField
{
#region
" Declare Privates "
private string _FieldName;
#endregion
private SqlDbType _FieldType;
#region
" Declare Public Properties "
/// <summary>
/// The field name that is required
/// </summary>
/// <value></value>
/// <remarks></remarks>
public string FieldName
{
get { return _FieldName; }
set { _FieldName = value; }
}
/// <summary>
/// The data type of the required field
/// </summary>
/// <value></value>
/// <remarks></remarks>
public SqlDbType FieldType
{
get { return _FieldType; }
set { _FieldType = value; }
}
