Rex,

>Shouldn't the business object rules be checked after the PreSaveHook in the kBizObj class. If not, the business rules are run before the foreign key fields can be populated in the bizobj's primary view.>>

That's a difficult call! It depends on what you're using the PreSaveHook method for...based on what you're doing in the method, you may not want the code in the PreSaveHook() to be executed *unless* the business rules are validated.

I'm open to doing it either way...any input from you lurkers????

Regards,
