The connection name is normally different than the DataSource.
You have created the grid and set the DataSource and DataFields. Now there is
one more step. You have to get the data from the bizobj. The easy way is to
do the following:
myBizobj = self.Form.getBizobj('tableName')
The above statement will get the bizobj for the tableName. Where tableName is
the name of your table (Authors I think)
Next you have to populate the grid dataset;
GridName.DataSet = myBizobj.getDataSet()
then you might want to refresh the grid
GridName.refresh()
That should provide a start.
