I am trying to create a screen with 2 tabs, each of the tabs contains a dataform. However, both tabs are bound to the same underlying screen.
Using DataAnnotations, how can this be achieved, as each of the dataforms paints the full screen, not the fields I want on each screen.

Hi Arvinder,
This is not currently possible using the same object for the Source, you'd need two different objects so that you can assign annotations independently. In summary, you can't dynamically switch the annotations depending on which DataForm belongs to.
You could try having a common base class that both objects inherit from, the 1st object for the 1st DataForm so that only the fields you want to appear there. The 2nd object for the 2nd DataForm and the fields you want there.
In the end, combine the values of both objects in a helper method that accepts a type of the base class.
