I am handling the set default values event of a business object however the editing state is idle.. I would think that is should be adding??

Anyways for now I am can set my own property so I know that values that are set from the set default value event. below

Private Sub BoWoLineItem1_SetDefaultValues() Handles BoWoLineItem1.SetDefaultValues

With BoWoLineItem1

.woi_PayRate = Me.BoWorkOrderHeader1.woh_PayRate

.End With

End Sub

This will provide a more granular depiction as to what is going on within the record itself.  But the editing state gets set after the row has been added and the default values event has been raised.  So if you have just called the Add() method, it will call the NewRow within the BusinessLayer which raises the OnSetDefaultValues() and the last call it makes is the SetEditingState.
