Paul,

>I'm putting together a form (which will probably be based on CBizObjMaintenanceForm) that will contain a number of container objects that have their own data environment. From what I understand from the manual, and answers to some of my previous questions, this form will have one parent object and several child objects (my containers). I'd like to have my parent object, when the user "saves" their changes, save only the keys to the data in the containers in the parent data environment. The container objects, of course, will save any information changed in any of their controls into their respective D.E. I'm not quite sure how/what I need to do to get my parent object to do this. My table/view of the parent D.E. is filled with mostly foreign keys.>

If I understand you correctly, you are asking how to save the foreign keys that point to your child business objects into your parent business object's InitialSelectedAlias...

If this is what you're asking, you can place code in the parent business object's PreSaveHook() that REPLACEs the foreign key fields with the correct values.

Regards,
