AnswerBDC list web part: Hide columns?

    In the Employee information table in one of our databases, we, or course, have an EmployeeID column as the primary key, along with other columns. I have a BDC list webpart connected to a BDC item web part. Yet the BDC list web part essentially gives you all of the information that you get in the BDC item web part. Can I hide some columns in the BDC list web part, so that it only shows Employee first and last name, and then when you click on the entry, you will see all of the information in the BDC item web part?

    Yes, you can hide columns. 

    1. Select to modify BDC List web part.
    2. Specify BDC Object Type in the BDC List web part properties.
    3. Apply Changes.
    4. In the BDC list webpart toolbar, click "Edit View" in the right hand corner of toolbar.
    5. Now in the "Edit View" page of the BDC list web part, you can specify columns, filters, groups everything.

    Hope this will help you.
