I often create forms with several navigational lists and in my case I have a navbar attached to each list so you can easily add and delete records to the associated list. Since I saw the navigation buttons etc. in the toolbar I wondered how this model works with multiple lists on the same form with I assume only one toolbar.<br> <br> Can someone explain how this works or does not work?<br> <br> Thanks,<br> SimonMon, 01 May 2006 13:12:32 GMTSimon Whitehttp://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost1025.aspxSimon,<br> <br> We have a component called the MaintenanceFormToolstrip that is the component you saw when you watched the video. It communicates directly with the form, and the form has collections of business objects that belong to "actions." There is a navigate action, a save action, an add action, etc, and you decide which business objects participate in the actions. However, there is only one collection for each action, so if you have multiple lists, you would be able to use the maintenance form toolstrip for one of the lists, but the other lists, you would have to add your own toolbars. <br> <br> It would be slightly more work than using the maintenance form toolstrip, but not a whole lot, because after building your toolbars, you would just have one line of code within each Click event of the buttons. For instance, the add button for the toolstrip on list 3 would look like this:<br> <br> Public Sub AddList3_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)<br> '-- Call Add() on the business object<br> List3BO.Add()<br> End SubMon, 01 May 2006 13:12:32 GMTStrataFrame Team
