But you have me confused. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- extremely sorry for confusing you. I will put my plan in a concise way again (at the bottom of this mail) ----------------------------------------------------------------------
>> As I understand your needs you have a simple parent->child relationship. >> Where 'dist' is a child of 'stat'. So when you say you want to display all the records in 'dist' unfiltered I don't understand the reason. Maybe you do not realize that it is possible to display all the filtered records at once? I will make this up but I believe it is a typical situation that presents it's self to programmers daily. You have a parent (lets say 'stat') table and you have a child ('dist') table. This relates to other parent->child relationship i.e Customers -> orders. With Dabo you would setup the relationship just like we have already done. Next you would create two grids, Grid1 would contain the list of parents (stat) and Grid2 would contain the filtered records of the child (dist). As you move to different rows in Grid1 the records will automatically change >>in Grid2 to match whatever row (record) is in Grid1. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- On my 'dist' display form, following format will be there --- dist name stat name action(edit/delete) link dist1 stat1 edit/del dist2 stat2 edit/del etc. Therefore, there is no 'stat' grid (Grid1) required on this form (to set the record pointer to correct dist record). All the dist records are to be displayed on this form, so that the user can choose one from them. This I plan to populate from an independent TempCursor for 'dist' When the user clicks on 'edit' link, the pointer in distBizObj will be set to that record. Further actions can be handled by distBizObj's methods. I hope that this sounds OK. Does it? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- So far so good for a simple parent->child relationship. I have other cases where the relationships are complex. To keep this mail short, I have posted a separate mail regarding that matter. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks, Vineet --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: Dabo-users@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-users Searchable Archives: http://leafe.com/archives/search/dabo-users This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/1313161299.85196.yahoomail...@web160520.mail.bf1.yahoo.com
