Hi everybody,

Last Friday I re-factored my Client class to use complex type for Contact Detail. The Clients table stores two sets of columns for the Contact details so I inrtroduced a new complex type (which also has another complex type PhoneInfo) for Contact1 and Contact2. After spending quite a time chasing my own bug (as it turned at the end) I got everything working correctly.

I also introduced new EditorFor for the ContactDetail class and for the PhoneInfo. Doing this I was able to almost achieve the layout I wanted (and that was the reason I started this exercise).

However, the DataAnnotationExtensions no longer work and the other validation do not seem to fire. The EMail validations did fire before I re-factored that class.

Do you know if it's possible to keep the current more clean design and also keep the validations properly working?

Thanks in advance.
