Binding table parameter from method to multi-line container e lement in task

Tue Jul 6 04:23:39 EDT 2004

Hi Jocelyn,

I'm not familiar with these options (always used the default settings). We're on 4.6C.

How can I see that I used 'the default setting of append' and how can I 'change it in the binding definition'? I tried to
find it, but no luck so far...

To me it seems that the problem was located in the binding from the method to the task and not in the binding from the
task to the workflow (see previous message). Maybe I'm wrong!

The only clue I have is what I already mentioned in my previous message, is that the change you refer to:

" What is also not clear to me is why the following expressions are shown
when defining the binding between the method parameter to the task
container element (one extra for the element 'NonClearableItems'):

================
Expression

    -  Container

        +  NonClearableItems    Invoice Items
            NonClearableItems      "  add instead of change
================ "

Hope you or someone else can help me out!

Regards,

Fredl
