BdcService ReadList method which allows to filter by multiple values

Question

Hi,

Let's assume we've got a method called ReadList(string a, string b, string c). This method is a default finder of my BDC model of my entity called, for example SampleEntity. I defined also three filters for my SampleEntity. It is possible to change behaviour of the DropDown menu, which displays all defined filters (but allows to filter only by one property at the same time). I would like to display for each filter of my SampleEntity label with filter's name and text box next to the label. Basically, I need to be able to filter the collection by more than one parameter. If anyone can help me?

Regards, Marcin

Hi Marcin,

In Business Data List Web Part you may combine as many filters as you need and use them simultaneously. Take a look at my example. I created two filters for ProductID and ProductName columns.
