SOLVED! Ya-hoo!!

Thanks James Cicenia for this little bit of code:

>Part part = (Part)companyDisplayGroup.selectedObject();
>session.setkitNumber(part.kitNumber);

This still looks like you're doing things the old relational database client way rather than the object-oriented EOF way. I.e., this object seems to be being used to explicitly fetch a related object when you should be able to merely follow the relationship path and let EOF do the fetching for you, but only if it needs to. In an earlier message that I no longer have, I think you mentioned that kitNumber was the foreign key of a relationship. Primary and foreign keys are normally not class properties and should not be accessed in one's Java code. If that relationship is named "kit" in your eomodel, part.kit() would be the appropriate way to access the kit related to the part.


Also, you're setting a Session instance variable rather than passing the object directly to the next component. Normally, Session shouldn't be cluttered with such objects, but there are situations in which this is appropriate.

	But maybe I don't understand your situation...

Aloha,
Art
