Ok so each control on a panel (on a mainform which has 10 views/bizobjs) knows
about the DataSource and DataField because I assigned the values. Now I have
a button that opens a dialog. How does the dialog know what biz object I
need? The controls -> on panel -> on a form could use any of the
bizobj/views.
BTW I understand Nate's question to be
I have a form with multi-panels and each panel uses different bizobjs (the
controls on the panel use different DataSource and DataFields). I also assume
'views' are SQL views.
