I have a complex View
. It has data from 4 Models
. The models are all static and work as expected. I have created a ViewModel to attempt to show just the data needed for this view. It is made up of Competitors and some complex Classes and Events they participate in.
I have made a complex ViewModel
. When I walk through the Controller
, I can see all three parts being constructed from the ViewModel
. Its all there including data. When I try to map the values using Intellesense
in the View
, it has no way of knowing this data, or has no mapping from the complex ViewModel. Am I doing this right? I have tried several ways to map these values to the View
. I think I need to initialize
or map
the values to the Models
derived from, I just cannot figure out how.
Please advise on how to map these values, data elements to the view.
ViewModel:
Compeditor
is an from an actual model direct to the DB
The rest of the data is gathered from multiple tables and passed to view from controller

View:
(Has to show the Competitor detail and a compound list of Event_Classes they are in)
In the view, I cannot see the values for any data.. all error on run and no good for display.
