I'm updating some programs and would like to switch the data access from buffered tables to views.
For the form with one-to-many business objects, it's easy to change the many side to a view but I wander how to switch the primary object.
The way I have it now:
In admintoolbarbutton.click, I bring up a modal selection form. The user picks a record and then the default click (doform)is fired with a pointer to the proper record. When the form is table driven, the next/previous/first/last buttons just navigate through the table.
With a view, I would select only on record. Since the primary object is usually based on a very large table, I would not want to select it all.
Is there a way to preserve the navigation buttons in that environment?
Any ideas?
