I'm trying to bind a CSLA business collection to replicator activity's intialChildData property.   I get an error that it the property must be an IList object.  I'm using CSLA.net 2.x.  Does the business collection support IList in CSLA.net 3.0 or 3.5?

Hmm. .. Sounds strange.  BusinessListBase does implement IList.  Try to look at your collection in object browser to see if you also can trace it to IList.  I was able to.

Here is my inheritance tree:  BusinessListBase (Of T, C) -> ExtendedBindingList (Of C) -> BindingList(of T) -> IList

You are right my objects to implement IList.  However, the Workflow dialog disagrees.  I've found if I manually type in the binding into the propertybox instead of using the dialog that it works.  I'm using VS2005 Pro with the Workflow extensions.  I wonder if WF works any better in VS2008, it is a bit rough in VS2005.
