Group: Forum Members Posts: 31, Visits: 199	I have two business objects in a parent/child relationship on a StrataFrame maintenance form. Can I get them to save within a transaction when the user clicks the Save button on the toolstrip? Thanks for your help. Fran Parker MaxQ Technologies, Inc.

There is not an option for the MaintenanceFormToolstrip that indicates that the BO(s) should save on a transaction. You will have to either do this in code or within your own toolstrip. In most cases, when transactions are used it is in an environment where you are already in code adding a lot of records and will be calling the Save() method directly, in which case you can go ahead and save on a transaction. When in a MaintenanceFormToolstrip situation, in most cases, there are generally few records and not in a high volume or transaction oriented environment....that is why this has never been added.

However, it this small process fail somewhere, I want to rollback EVERYTHING. How to do this? Which sample can I refer to? Thank you

You can refer to the documentation to help you get started here. Business Layer -> Common Business object Tasks -> Using Transactional Processing
