Rather quick question.
I have conducted a search in Commerce server and now have a
CatalogItemsDataSet.  I have tried to iterate through the collection
of CatalogItems via a foreach as so and cast each CatalogItem to a
Commerce Server product as so:
foreach(CatalogItemsDataSet.CatalogItem item in
ACatalogDS.CatalogItems)
{
// Code here to make sure the item is a product,,,,then,,,
Microsoft.CommerceServer.Catalog.Product
tempProduct = (Microsoft.CommerceServer.Catalog.Product)item;
This unfortunatly results in the following compile error : " Error 87
Cannot implicitly convert type
'Microsoft.CommerceServer.Catalog.CatalogItemsDataSet.CatalogItem' to
'Microsoft.CommerceServer.Catalog.Product'"
I have searched around a bit but have not yet found a quick fix.
Thanks.

Hi, I do it like this:

Microsoft.CommerceServer.Catalog.CatalogItemsDataSet oProductsFound;
Microsoft.CommerceServer.Catalog.CatalogSearch oSearchObject;
Microsoft.CommerceServer.Catalog.ProductCatalog oCatalog;
Microsoft.CommerceServer.Catalog.Product oProduct;
int i=0;

<... Here configure your search object and initialize objects...>

oProductsFound = oSearchObject.Search();

for (int i=0; i < oProductsFound.CatalogItems.Count; i++)
{
oProduct =
oCatalog.GetProduct(oProductsFound.CatalogItems[i].ProductId);
}

I don't know if it's a good approaching, but it works. 

Scherzo
