LOV value binding to nonbasetable column in Jclient (Jdev9032)

Question

how can I bind LOV to a nonbase table column ?
If I have a form for EMP data maintainess,
in EMP table there's deptid,
in empview view object I join the deptname into the view,
panel display both deptid and deptname,
I create a LOV
(using JButton LOV data Binding) for deptid,
select both deptid and deptname in LOV view,
I can assign deptid data binding from LOV,
But if I add one more assignment
for deptname (non-base-table column),
the button will totlly disable while inserting.
if not ,I cannot display deptname after performmed the
dept selection?

Hi,
what do you mean by But if I add one more assignment
for deptname ? Dou mean that you want to have the LOV to return the deptname to an attribute, so that deptid and deptname are returned? Please give me a better idea of what you are trying to do.
Thanks
