   It appears the value assigned here will default to the value from the .applicationsettings when dropped on the form? Is this correct?
   
   Is this the value used at runtime?
   
   I guess my question is if we want all BE Adapter to use the same StopAfter can we override this at runtime with the value from .applicationsettings ?

   The initial value of the StopAfter property of the SmartBusinessEntityAdapter is defined in the products.i file:
   
   

       /**
        * Purpose: Value for StopAfter to be passed to the Service Interface
        * Notes:   Allows limiting the execution time of queries executed on the backend
        *          Not supported on OpenEdge 10.2B
        *          The default value for this property may be set using the DefaultStopAfter
        *          preprocessor variable in Consultingwerk/products.i
        */
       DEFINE PUBLIC PROPERTY StopAfter AS INTEGER INITIAL &IF DEFINED (DefaultStopAfter) NE 0 &THEN {&DefaultStopAfter} &ELSE 0 &ENDIF NO-UNDO
       GET.
       SET.

   
   Alternatively it's using the DefaultStopAfter value from the .applicationsettings. But this is just a property default - it won't override a setting defined in a Form.
   
   To enforce the same value to all instances, I would recommend to override the OnNewFetchDataRequest method of the SmartBusinessEntityAdapter and set the value there.
