I am trying to set up a piece of code just to loop through a BO. Took the code below from training class manual but  cant get intellisense on BoType

Hi Gerald,



This is something I use a lot Here is the vb version:





Where "record" is the object based on the main class of the business object, not the instance in the form. and Me.BizTransactionItems1 is the instance class in the form. Whatever you do with "record" it is actually happening in Me.BizTransactionItems1 real time, except that GetEnumerable() will keep the record pointer "CurrentRowIndex" updated for you, so don't need to worry about it.



Enjoy!!!!

Edhy right on the money, as usual.



Here is the C# code you might use.



Sample #1: Looping through a BO dropped on a form. Assume you have a BO you've built called MySpecialBO. You've dropped an instance on a form and the instance is named MySpecialBO1.





Sample #2: Looping through the BO within the BO itself. We'll use MySpecialBO again, but this time we're doing this inside an instance method.

Edhy and greg..many thanks for your replies.

I am getting a ...ideBo1 is a field but is used as a type compile error message. ideBo1 is an instance of the BO on the form and is fine in all other processing.  Must be something very simple but I cant see it ??

foreach (ideBO1 boRow in this.ideBO1.GetEnumerable())
{ MessageBox.Show(ideBO1.IDE_STKREF); }

Hi Gerard,



It should be:

Hi Edhy. Thanks for that. I did not see that is was the Business Object as opposed to the instantiated Business Object that goes with the Foreach. Its compiling now.

Hi Gerard,



Glad it is working for you.



I've been there many times when the .GetEnumerable() was introduced by Trent 2 years ago and I was fairly new to all .Net, but now I use this all over, it is easy, fast and reliable since it will not affect the actual CurrentRowIndex of the BO instance in the form.
