Setting the ChangeGroupMode property:

To create a change group, you use the ChangeGroupMode property of the Data Source node of the form. However, the default behavior is not to use a change group together with a form. You can use ChangeGroupMode to create a change group for any of the following types of forms:

A new form that you create in the AOT.

A form that includes date effective data.

A form with a data source where a parent table has a join relationship to a child table where the child holds a reference to the parent table. The reference can be either mandatory or optional.

Please read complete detail on : msdn.microsoft.com/.../jj129662.aspx

Jerzy,

Doing what you are requesting may be confusing to users, however I would recommend that you create a standard button and overwrite the "clicked" method, in this method you can then detect what datasource is active and delete accordingly.

As i understand you need to get button on from and from AOT you need to change the properties to Achieve this functionality you need to set AllowUserSetup property that Specifies whether users can move controls on a form, and whether they can change control properties.

This property is also found on the design of a form. The property has the following outcomes:

1. No – users cannot customize any controls in this container.

2. Restricted– users can change properties of individual controls, but cannot move controls.

3. Yes – no restrictions on user setup.

Yes is the default value for AllowUserSetup.

Full user setup is not allowed if any of the parent containers for the control have restrictions on the user setup level.

The AllowAdd property on form data sources determines whether a user can add a new field to a form.

Probably you re right Jonathan Halland.

I though that i can change datasource in group property from x++ code, when I change TabPage. On form, I ve got two grids. First on TableTabPage, second on LinesTabPage.

Thanks for your response.
