Form Multiple Page problem.

Question

I am new to building windows forms. I have a form (Visual studio & C#) with a large number of fields. The form is based off an oracle table. I use tab controls to split the fields onto different pages. One of the fields is an Id autogenerated by a call to an oracle stored procedure. It is non-enterable. I am assigning the value to the Id (this.editagencyid) in the event btnAdd. When I start to enter data in the other fields and go from one tabpage to another I lose information in the Id field but all others field values are preserved. Autoassigning of values by a call to the stored procedure works fine when only one form page is involved. Am I implementing this requirement right? Is there a better way to handle this Id assignment. The form uses a dataset that was created based on the oracle table. Thanks!

Are you reffering to a DataGrid when you mention (fields)? If so then all you would need to do is just place one DataGrid on the form. The DataGrid is scrollable so you wouldn't need to span it across multiple TabControls. Hope this helps!!
