Tom,
>Hi and Help - I am new to the MM framework. I have a master demographic table that resides on 3 of 4 page frames. The 4th page frame is a child showing contributions. There is one child record for each master record. I have tried a number of combinations and have been unsuccesful in getting the child to display on page 4. I am getting an Invalid control source for the page 4 controls. I am using 2 different business objects. I have tried both on the form. I have tried the business objects on their corresponding page frames. Usually I get an alias not found. The example isn't real clear and I am not sure what I am doing wrong.>
If you're getting an invalid controlsource error it means one of a few things:
1. Your view is not getting loaded into the form's data session at all
2. Your view is not getting loaded until *after* the UI controls instantiate
3. There's a typo in the UI controlSource properties
Here's a few things to try:
1. Go to page 4, select the business object, then from the "Format" menu, select "Send to Back". This ensures that your business object instantiates and loads its data before the UI controls instantiate.
2. Verify your ControlSource values
