Rick,
>I have a mmDataGridView control with BindingSource set to a Transaction Business object. I would like to display a Description column in this grid from another Business object. Could someone tell me the best way to accomplish this? If this has been answered in some previous thread just point me to that. Thanks.
If this is an "editable" grid the best choice is to create a combo box filled with a list of descriptions. If it's just a read-only column, you can change the SQL statement (or stored proc) to return the description from the other table. You can then set your business object's UpdateSelectStatement property so the Insert, Update, and Delete operations only update the columns from the main table. For more information on this property, see the MM .NET Dev Guide topic "UpdateSelectStatement: The Update Select Statement ".
