Wiring up screen to Add New Custom Record
Posted: 18 Mar 08 11:34 AM

I am upgrading a database that has NetworkClient customizations, which I developed a few years ago, that I need to implement in the Slx 7.2.2 WebClient. One of the customizations tracks Project and Project_Task information. It uses a Gmk_Project table that has a M:1 relationship to the Account table, and a Gmk_Task table that has a M:1 relationship to the Account table and a M:1 relationship to the gmk_project table.
I created a custom main view that that displays the Project Detail information, and Task infomation in a grid on a Project.Task tab. This is working the day I want and I am able to edit/delete existing Project records.
I created a Task Detail screen that is invokes from the Tasks tab grid. The Task Detail Screen works the way I want and I am able to edit/delete existing Task records.
Now I need to get the Insert (Task and Project) pieces working. I started with the Task Detail screen. The Task Detail form has an Account Lookup and a Project Lookup on it, and I am able to insert a new Task by manually populating the Account and Project information. However what I want is for the Account and Project information to be automatically populated when the Task Detail opens. The Add Task screen in being called from a Toolbar button on the Project-Task so the desired Account and Project informaiton is at hand when the Add button is clicked.
I decided to add a C# snippet to the LoadAction to set the Projectid and Accountid on the form when it is called in Add mode. I am able to sense when I am in Add mode and have been able to set the Projectid but have not been able to set the Account or other bound fields on the form.
Here is the C# code I tried.
Sage.Entity.Interfaces.IGmk_Task t = this.BindingSource.Current as Sage.Entity.Interfaces.IGmk_Task;
if (t.GmkProject == null)
{
Sage.Entity.Interfaces.IGmk_Project pp = GetParentEntity() as Sage.Entity.Interfaces.IGmk_Project;
if (pp != null)
{
t.GmkProject = pp; //this works
//t.Account=pp.Account; //this sort-of worked but caused problems on the post
t.AccountId=pp.Accountid;
this.lueAccount.Text=pp.Account.AccountName;
}
}
Questions:
Is what I am trying to do possible from the LoadActions? If so how do I get it done?
Is there a better approach... perhaps a business-rule? If so how to a approach it?
**Note** I am a new-comer to the ASP.Net world.
