I have a single-column dataset of string values bound to the data property of a table in a perspective view. The selectedRow property changes when running in the designer, but not from the client. I have created a new dataset to make sure it was set as a string, entering test data into the values

What is your evidence that it doesn’t change in the client?

When I click the row in the client, the selectedRow value doesn’t change. When I change the selectedRow value, the selection highlight in the client doesn’t change.

How do you know that? Are you logging changes to that attribute somewhere?

How are you changing it? If you just change it in the Designer, then it won’t affect the client. The Designer view and client view are separate things.

I was looking at the value in the properties of the table, which was not changing with the client. I bound the title label for testing in my client with the selectedRow, and it updated on the client.
