Hi;
 
I think when changed or adding record , view based entity cannot automatic refresh.  
 
How to refresh view based entitiy after changed or adding new record at another edit form and how to releated record (added, changed) position in the view based entity form after saving?
 
view based entity form : Only listing record to gridview
edit form : edit releated record at view based entity form
 
after saving in edit form
can I using following steps?
pm.refetch<viewbasedentity, DatasourceOnly)
viewbasedentityBS.position = added or changed record
 
 
Best Regards

If I am in the currently active form in an application, other forms will not update when changes are made to this form.  I would argue that this is a good thing because it would be very dustracting if forms in the backgroud started mgically repainting their contectents.  The correct technique is  to have each form examine its environment when it becomes the currently active form.  If it sees that data has changed, it should force a redisplay.
