>No I actually did subclass the BO, which then allowed me to see that object in the BO wizard to select for binding to my grid. I quickly wanted to test that solution out while trying to understand Linda's solution. In my case the subclassing was simple to implement quickly, and it accomplished exactly what I needed.

>Tim's response did get me to thinking though. From a object oriented or design pattern standpoint, shouldn't I be able to have two different instances of an object that contained different data? In this case wouldn't you want to subclass the object?

IMHO, if we want to operate with different set of data, perhaps having different classes (or subclass of another) is better. However, I'm not familiar with MM.NET framework (I'm familiar with VFP MM framework) and made my suggestion just as the first idea came out.

I believe Tim and Linda will give you better approaches to consider and also may explain what is better from OOP standpoint.
