Hi All,

In AA we will be setting the string expression.

Where is the string expression stored so that we can open in VS and change it.

Thanks.

When you set the string expression for an entity in AA and do a build, the string expression gets set as the ToString override for the entity in the actual code implementation that you'll find in the build output folder.

Prior to the build, you'll find this in the metadata for the entity in the model. For example, to see this for the Account entity, you can navigate in your model to Model\Entity Model\SalesLogix Application Entities\Account and open Account.ACCOUNT.entity.xml in a text editor. You'll find the node in the XML for StringExpression in the OrmEntityMetadataExtension section.

I guess I am not sure what you're after. After deployment, you'd have to change it by going to the build output folder, opening the implementation project in Visual Studio. Then open the code file for the entity and modify the ToString override. Then build the project and copy the resulting DLL to the bin folder of the deployed site.
