I thought I tried that! I think I must have had a LHS that made it not target 
what I thought I was targeting. But now it is beautiful.
 Thanks,

Set the rule for 
toOneUIStyle = "popup"

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?

Okay, so to expand on my original
reply,

Add at least two rules.

100: entity.name = "Employee" and propertyKey =
"employmentTitle" => componentName =
ERD2WEditToOneRelationship [Assignment]

100: entity.name = "Employee" and propertyKey =
"employmentTitle" => restrictedChoiceKey =
object.currentTitles [Assignment]

Then in your Employee.java add a method like:

public NSArray<EmploymentTitle> currentTitles() {
    NSArray<EmploymentTitle>
employmentTitleList = 
       
EmploymentTitle.fetchEmploymentTitles(
           
editingContext(), 
           
EmploymentTitle.IS_CURRENT.eq(true), 
           
EmploymentTitle.ORDERING_INT.ascs());
    return employmentTitleList;
}

Optionally, you can set a key to be the value displayed in
the popup list.  Say your employment title entity has
an attribute named titleName, you would do it using a rule
like

100: (propertyType = 'r' and
relationship.destinationEntity.name = 'EmploymentTitle')
=> keyWhenRelationship = "titleName"

By default, the rule system will use the
userPresentableDescription() method on your eo.  So you
could just do that in your EO:

public String userPresentableDescription() {
    return valueForKey("titleName");
}

You can also localize the values if you like, using a rule
like:

100: (propertyType = 'r' and
relationship.destinationEntity.name = 'EmploymentTitle')
=> localizeDisplayKeys = true [BooleanAssignment]

So if one employee title is "Manager" then in your french
localizable strings file you would have

"Manager" = "Gestionnaire";

And your popup values would be localized.  You might
instead prefer to use localized columns in your database for
larger datasets.  You can do that using the
ERXLanguages userInfo key in your eomodel. That's up to
you.

Hi Ted,

componentName = ERD2WEditToOneRelationship
restrictedChoiceKey = object.currentTitles

Then create a method on your object returning an array
of current employment titles like you have below.

OK so this is a real newbie thing.

In my Wonder app, I would:

create a list of entries to populate a popup

employmentTitleList =
EmploymentTitle.fetchEmploymentTitles(newEmployeeEC,
EmploymentTitle.IS_CURRENT.eq(true),
EmploymentTitle.ORDERING_INT.ascs());

I don't understand how to do this in an Edit page
in D2W.

Is there anything like this in an example?
