Hi all,

Before I start: yes Chuck, I've googled, searched documentation, etc aboot this. :-P

I have a to-one relationship in which the destination object may or may not actually exist. The destination object may get deleted out of the database without EOF's knowledge. The FK values are still in the original table, but the record in the destination table is gone. The destination table is in a Microsoft (Great Plains) Dynamics database.

This causes an ObjectNotAvailableException to be thown. What I'd like the relationship to return is null.

Isn't this what an Outer Join is supposed to do?

The problem is that I can't select Outer Join for the relationship in Entity Modeler. The drop-down is grayed-out.

1) Is this the correct use of an Outer Join
2) Why can't I set it?

Dave
