Business Data Column Added to List

Asked By: Lukas Nolan Date: May 04, 2008 Category: Sharepoint Views: 483

I have a list that already has business data columns. I added another
field to be included in the Business data that is pulled in for the
list. Now, each "item" in the list has blank field for the new column.
If I edit the item, resubmit it, the field is populated with the
business data. I REALLY don't want to do this for every item. Did I
miss something?

I've seen this before and never found a way to programmatically update
the columns being pulled from the BDC. So unfortunately, I think you
are left with having to touch every item in the list to pick up the new
values.

Maybe something else could work then. What I need the column for
is for filtering. I don't actually need to display it.

Any idea if there's a way to programmatically update the items with a
filter on a new BD column?
