thanks, will try that out tommorow

I think you will need to work with a view. Have a look at the posts starting from here:

http://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost20482.aspx

for example:

CustomerBO has fields "Name" and "Cust-No". The Browserdialog allows searching for thoose. But should also allow for searching "Order-No" from OrderBO and then show the Customer "Name" and "Cust-No" to whom the order belongs to ?

Also i was wondering if i could have 2 maintance toolstrips on a form and have the first be attached to customersBO and the second be attached to ordersBO ? Since i cannot find a property in the maintanance toolstrip to set the BO to be used. it just uses the primary one.

Thanks.
