LLBLGen runtime 2.6.9.616

I'm trying to use a prefetch path with an asp.net FormView and the display is showing the entity type rather than the actual data.

By using Profiler, I can see that the related information is being retrieved so I believe that the code is correct. However, the FormView display shows

MyNamespace.DAL.EntityClasses.PaymentMethodTypeEntity

The entity name and the field name are both the same (PaymentMethodType). I don't know if that is what is causing the problem or not.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Might be, but we can't tel without seeing some code, could you please post the FormView aspx code. (Only the item template can be sufficient to show how you bind to the related entity's field).

OK, here is the .cs code and the FormView code.

first, the FormView

        

        <ItemTemplate>
            <table style="width: 500px;" class="CssColumnForm"> 
            
            
                <tr>
                    <th class="dataLabel" scope="row"  style="width: 150px; text-align:right;">
                        ID
                    </th>
        
                    <td class="dataCell" style="text-align:left">
                    <asp:Label ID="lblId" runat="server" 
                        Text='<%# Eval("ProductPartnerPaymentId", "{0:f0}")%>' />
                    </td> 
                </tr>

The entity name and the field name are both the same (PaymentMethodType). I don't know if that is what is causing the problem or not.

You are binding directly to PaymentMethodType. Is that field a field on the PaymentMethodTypeEntity or is a field mapped on related field? Or is a custom property on the ProductPartnerPaymentEntity?

If you don't have the field mapped on related fields on the ProductPartnerPaymentEntity or if you don't have a custom property on ProductPartnerPaymentEntity that returns that related field, I think you should try do this:

Text='<%# Eval("PaymentMethodType. PaymentMethodType")%>'
