Thanks everyone, sorry to bother you with such a trivial query but those responses do help.

I hate to ask this but, here goes:

I notice in Assembly dlls some include the reference "AD", others "BO" - whats the difference ?

I'm trying to create an ultragrid control containing data held in a UD table embedded within the OrderDtl form.

Many thanks

To the best of my limited knowledge:

BO are the Business Object files which contain the logic used for connecting to appservers and controlling the UI

AD are the ADapters that contain the methods to retrieve, update data

IF are the InterFace files that contain the dataset definitions and call the progress routines running on the server.

You can retrieve data from the UD tables pretty easily without getting too burdened down with calling adapter methods. try doing a search in help for 'Used Defined Tables' The UI method SearchFunctions.listLookup works nicely

You actually find that there are three....When referencing an adapter
for a table outside the form youll want to make a reference to three
.dll's.



AD, BO, and IF

I hate to ask this but, here goes:

I notice in Assembly dlls some include the reference "AD", others "BO" -
whats the difference ?

I'm trying to create an ultragrid control containing data held in a UD
table embedded within the OrderDtl form.

Many thanks

This is what in Epicor's doc.

Typically, however, a UI application consists of four primary .dll files. These files
can be divided into the Business Object, Adaptor, and UI categories.

Each Business Object has two .dll files - a business layer .dll file and an IF .dll file. The business
layer .dll controls the business layer (BL) needed to run the application; these files always
begin with the Epicor.Mfg.BO prefix. The base namespace for the methods is defined in the IF
.dll file; these files always begin with an Epicor.Mfg.IF prefix


There is a pdf file "Software Developers toolkit, UI_Manual_803.pdf" on Epicor web. You can download it. It has detailed info. I have a copy if you have problem download it.
