When I am working on child dialogs, I definitely use the child form dialog so I can map my BOs, but I manage the state of the as part of the showing of the child form dialog. First, take advantage of the SaveCurrentDataTableToSnapshot method on the BO. This is better than an undo because you may go into the child form more than once as part of editing that record. The first time, things would be good, but if you go back in and cancel...well, you just toasted the record or table state. For example: private void AddRecord() { myBo.SaveCurrentDataTableToSnapshot("Adding"); myBo.Add(); if(myChildForm.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.Cancel) { myBo.RestoreCurrentDataTableSnapshot("Adding", true); } } Take this same logic and apply it to an edit. You would just replace the Add with an Edit. You can do it in the same method if you pass over the state you are expecting and the record you are wanting to load. Prior to the edit, you can do a seek to the PK or whatever if you pass it in. Edited 9 Years Ago by Trent L. Taylor

To add new records I call a childform with the childformdialog. This is how it's done: LieferBO1.Add() Dim para As New Liefneuparams para.cNeu = "N" para.cModule = "Latitelneu" para.cLiefer = "" para.lSolo = False If Childliefneu.ShowDialog(para) = DialogResult.OK Then ....... This works the first time I call it but the second time the liefpos.add() does not add a new record and the bo is positioned on the actual record. Does anyone know why this is not working? Best regards Thomas
