Hi there,

For some reason, my popup (list populated by a db fetch) now
querys AND displays correctly, but selecting the value in the
popup still produces null when submitting the object for
insertion. The text fields are fine, so the method is probably
sound. I'm assuming my wopopup bindings are somehow incorrect.
Here are the current bindings:
displayString: testTypeEnumerator.testType
item: testTypeEnumerator
list: testList
noSelectionString: "Select A Test..."
selection: newTestsEntry.testType
No, selection needs to be bound to the object selected _not_ the
display string.
I suspect that Jeremy's choice of names is at least half of his
problem. :-)
testTypeEnumerator.testType is a String but newTestsEntry /
newEntry's testType (depending on who you believe) is a relationship
to type Test (or is that Tests?), which is the object in testList. I
think. So newTestsEntry.testType.testType is a String, the string
the is displayed in the popup.
Whew!

displayString: is showing correct attribute
item: not sure why I need the enumerator, but its there
list: working, since the attributes are displayed correctly from
the db fetch
noSelectionString: not really important, but there
selection: not sure if this is working...this is the important
binding that takes the selected value, no?
Entity is caled "Tests"
attributes are: testType, testScore, testGrade, testName
new entry is called "newEntry"
So you should have:
YourPopup: WOPopUpButton {
displayString = testTypeEnumerator.testType;
item = testTypeEnumerator;
list = testList;
noSelectionString = "Select A Test...";
/* the all important... */
selection = newEntry;
}
