When I select a cell in the Detail grid I get the error "Key Field not found".

created 15 years ago

I have set up a grid with a Master-Detail relationship. Each view is associated to a TClientDataSet. The detail view > MasterKeyFieldNames property has been set to match the key name of the Master View. The detail view > DetailKeyFieldNames property has been set to match the key name of the Detail View. The detail view > KeyFieldNames property has been set to match the key name of the Detail View.
When I run the program the data displays properly at first. However, when I enter one of the fields on the Detail grid I get the error "Key Field not found". There is always one row that does not give the "Key Field not found" error, but in that row the highlighted cell displays data from another cell until another cell is selected.

    Hello Karen,
    Thank you for the message.
    This error occurs because your dsDetail dataset doesn't contain the cdsKeyFieldName field.
    You should assign an existent column to the TcxDBDataController.KeyFieldNames property.
    For more information, please read the "Master-Detail" topic.
    Thanks,
    Valdemar
