A few questions for you. I'm using the DevExpress 6.1.5 inherited controls.



1. Possible bug. The GradientFormHeader in a maintenance form keeps forgetting the value of it's Title property. I've worked around it for now by setting the property manually in the Load event.



2. I'm using a Browse Dialog and one of my search fields is a boolean field. I can enter "true" or "false" (without the quotes) and it works find. If I make a mistake, e.g. I enter "fals", I get an exception error screen and the little searching progress window stays visible. How would you avoid this type of user input error on a boolean search field?



3. When defining the seach fields for a Browse Dialog, what is Enum Type used for? It's not mentioned in the help topic "Using the Browse Dialog", which seems a bit out of date.



4. After successfully adding a new record in a maintenance form, the new record is appended to the end of the data held by the business object. How do I get it sorted into the correct position?



5. The StrataFrame help file I have doesn't seem to have an index. Is this correct? An index would be a big help, as would more detail on all the various classes and their members. A big task I know, but its very frustrating to look up class members and only find short descriptions. Better than nothing, but could definitely be better. A product with the class of StrataFrame should have documentation to match.



6. Finally, how is v1.5 for DevExpress 6.2 progressing? I'm very keen to get this update as soon as possible.



Regards,

Bruce
