This is not a StrataFrame issue as such but I would appreciate any comments you care to make. We have our own base BO that we have implemented as a template. It does a lot of standard stuff for our app and inherits from MicroFour.StrataFrame.Business.BusinessLayer of course.

In the environment we used to develop the template it works fine - a single project which contained all the BOs we created and various classes and forms.

We now have what we believe will be our 'proper' development environment - a single solution containing multiple projects, e.g. BO library for this, a BO library for that, a project for Forms etc. But now, when I create a BO using our template, I get the following errors and I just can't see where we have gone wrong. If I create a BO using the standard StrataFrame BO template everything is fine. I have checked the boXXX.designer.vb code for the BO produced by our own template and the standard StrataFrame template and its identical. I have checked the boXXX.vb code for for both approaches and, except for the expected custom code, both pieces of code are the same.

As I said, any comment would be appreciated.
