BC4J - ViewObject not returning latest data

Question

BC4J - ViewObject not returning latest data. Some kind of EO/VO Cache Latency Issue.
I have an edit page that presents a drop-down list which is suppose to display * un-assigned * messages, but does not. The drop-down list is using an <jbo:InputSelect> tag that gets values from a ViewObject (UnAssignedMessageView ) which issues the query listed below. Note, the ViewObject is not based on an Entity Object.
(Query in UnAssignedMessageView)
select      message.message_desc_short, message.message_id
from     fmm.message
where      message.message_id not in (select cardmessage.message_id from fmm.card_message)
and message.message_id != 0     
(from the edit.jsp)
<jbo:ApplicationModule id="am" configname="com.maxmcbyte.fmm.model.ModelModule.ModelModuleLocal" releasemode="Reserved" />
<jbo:DataSource id="ds" appid="am" viewobject="CardMessageView1" />           <<****** The VO where the inserts/updates are recorded.
<jbo:DataSource id="ds2" appid="am" viewobject="MessageUnAssignedView" />     <<****** The VO for the unassigned message drop-down-list.
The problem is at step 3.
Starting with 3 Unassigned Messages.
Step 1: enter new record AND select a MESSAGE_ID from the drop-down list.
Step 2: commit the transaction.
Step 3: enter another record AND select a MESSAGE_ID from the drop-down list.     <<****** the list should now be displaying 2 unassigned messages but is displaying 3.
Note, if I check the database after step 3 using the same query as in the UnAssignedMessageView I get the correct result. I guess I'm not understanding how BC4J ViewObject Caching is working. It is strange that even after I commit the record that the cache is not updated.
I have read the docs and will have to re-read them again * but * it would be REAL NICE to see an illustration of "A DAY IN THE LIFETIME OF DATA IN BC4J" for dummies like me.
Can anyone tell me what I'm missing here AND what specifically needs to be done?
Thanks All,

Answer 1

Well, I figured it out * BUT * this is the sort of thing that I'll bet stumps a lot of new users * AND * should be posted to a "Gotch-Ya" list.
I'd still like to see an illustration of "A DAY IN THE LIFE OF DATA IN BC4J"

<jbo:ApplicationModule id="am" configname="com.maxmcbyte.fmm.model.ModelModule.ModelModuleLocal" releasemode="Reserved" />
<jbo:DataSource id="ds1" appid="am" viewobject="CardMessageView1" />
<jbo:DataSource id="ds2" appid="am" viewobject="MessageUnAssignedView" />
<%-- adding this did the trick --%>
<%
ViewObject view2 = ds2.getRowSet().getViewObject();
view2.executeQuery();
view2.first();
