I get most of this however, is there a simpler way to set the UI of the toOne?
100 : (entity.name = 'AdRelease' and propertyKey = 'client') =>
componentName = ERD2WEditToOneRelationship
[com.webobjects.directtoweb.Assignment],
100 : (entity.name = 'AdRelease' and propertyKey = 'client') =>
restrictedChoiceKey = object.currentClients
[com.webobjects.directtoweb.Assignment],
100 : (propertyType = 'r' and relationship.destinationEntity.name =
'Client') => keyWhenRelationship = clientName
[com.webobjects.directtoweb.Assignment],
works beautifully however the UI is (are) radioButtons. Did I miss something do
set the UI to a popup?
