>Jeff,

>>I played with the Northwinds example to see how it is supposed to work. I'm not quite sure why it runs through the rules, but it does. I changed mine to work the same way and it checks the rules. It's kind of annoying to have to hit the new button every time, but it does work.

>Right...it's a problem with allowing the UI to skip the business tier and directly affect the data tier.

So am I doing it wrong and I should somehow tie the grid to the business tier, or is it the nature of the beast and I have no option other than to tie it to the data tier?
