Hi All,
How to do this ?
I have an activity having 5 destination Users. Once a worklist is created for them, at some point of time, I need to update a datafield value(say Name) to a particular value depending on who is the destination user ?
Can this be done. I think here I have to go for Activity DataField .
Please guide
Thanks and Regards

Hi sourcecode,
Yes, you would need to use Activity level datafields. Don't try to update the datafield in the K2Studio process design itself - otherwise each ActivityInstanceDestination object will just contain the name of the applicable Destination user. Rather update the datafield in you end user's UI - SmartForms, ASP.NET, WinForms or InfoPath - whatever you use.
HTH,
Ockert

Once you connect to the server in your web page (there are many examples in the Developer's Reference) you can open the WorkListItem. From there you can access properties to get/set process and activity level variables:
SourceCode.Workflow.Client.Connection conn= new SourceCode.Workflow.Client.Connection();
conn.Open("MyConnectionStringl");
SourceCode.Workflow.Client.WorklistItem wli = conn.OpenWorklistItem(Request.QueryString["SN"]);
tbProcessField.Text = wli.ProcessInstance.DataFields["MyProcessField"].Value.ToString();
tbActivityField.Text = wli.ActivityInstanceDestination.DataFields["MyActivityField"].Value.ToString();
You will need to add appropriate error handling then close & dispose the connection.
