That is my last experiment!
Your answer (together with the other one on assigning bizobjs references to
controls), means I probably have 90% of the problem solved. Txs!
These are two of the methods that change dPage:
def onBtnAccts(self, evt):
self.splitter.Panel2.SelectedPageNumber = 0
self.PrimaryBizobj =
self.bizobjDispatcher.getBizobjByRegID('account')
def onBtnOpptys(self, evt):
self.splitter.Panel2.SelectedPageNumber = 1
self.PrimaryBizobj =
self.bizobjDispatcher.getBizobjByRegID('opportunity')
