First, if the update mode is set to OnPropertyChanged, and the BO does not show the changes in the OnTextChanged event, then it is a matter of handler order. In other words, the TextChanged event that you are handling is being fired BEFORE the base. If you want to prove this, create a MyTextBox class, inherit the SF TextBox, then override the OnTextChanged event and place your code AFTER the MyBase.OnTextChanged call. This should then prove where the issue was and then you can start to work the problem so that it may be easier to implement this same logic in the future.

I added a custom field property to my business object (lValidated), added a propertychanged sub for each required field, which call me.CheckRequiredFieldRules function. Then on the form, the button's, enabled property is bound to the business object. In business object: Private _lValidated As Boolean = False <Browsable(False), BusinessFieldDisplayInEditor(), _ Description("Boolean, Are All Required Fields Validated?"), _ DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Hidden)> _ Public ReadOnly Property [lValidated]() As Boolean Get Return _lValidated End Get End Property Protected Overrides Function GetCustomBindablePropertyDescriptors() _ As MicroFour.StrataFrame.Business.FieldPropertyDescriptor() Return New FieldPropertyDescriptor() {New ReflectionPropertyDescriptor("lValidated", Me.GetType())} End Function Private Sub CheckRequiredFieldRules() Dim llValidated As Boolean llValidated = Me.CheckRulesOnRow() If llValidated Then Me._lValidated = True Else Me._lValidated = False End If End Sub Private Sub boParticipants_address1Changed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.address1Changed Me.CheckRequiredFieldRules() End Sub Then on the button I set: BindingField = lValidated BindingProperty = Enabled BindingUpdateMode = Never BusinessObject = boParticipants ControlSourceUpdate = OnPropertyChanged And I turned then little error arrows off I took some of it from other posts. Oh, and I know I could use an IIF() instead of If..then. One thing I like is that all the logic is in the Business Object. Thanks Marcel

Group: StrataFrame Users Posts: 84, Visits: 835	BindingUpdateMode is set to OnPropertyChanged. I'm trying to activate/deactivate a button depending on whether all required fields are filled in. I figured I could do a CheckRulesOnRow when the textbox_TextChanged event occurs. But it seems that the business object hasn't been updated yet at this point. Is there a way to do this after the bo has been updated with the new value? Thanks, Marcel
