Marco,

Thanks for the reply. Do you happen to have a link to this being used?

I though a cursor was similar to PHP's handle, meaning that it did not  
retrieve the data until the data was actively requested, saving on all  
sorts of things. So if I had a class with 5 cursors, all pointing to  
small bits of data, do I need to have a DatasetObserver for every  
Cursor I have stored?

Thanks,
Hamilton
