Setup: 2 databases Lightswitch.applicationdata with table Customers SQL.PlaceNamesData with tables Countries, States, Places and PostCodes AddCustomer screen is a New Data Screen. This screen has 3 autocomplete boxes to filter country, state, place. Postcode is a one to one relationship with place.
Issue: In the code provided I am trying to save the fields to the new customer record, however the selected country, state, place and postcode are not being saved with the companyname and other details. Instead each of the foreign keys from the PlaceNamesData DB are saving in ascending order based on the postcodenum field.
I have been trying different methods for a few days now. How do I save the filtered screen values to the foreign keys in the Customer record?

Ahhhhg fixed - Incorrect relationships setup between intrinsic DB and external DB.
